Ok, so you all know I had a great birthday and I was completely fine with it. Well, little did I know it was far from over. Last night I had a surprise birthday party all planned by my amazing husband. Here's how it went down. Before I went to work, John told me he had a friend from out of town visiting and that they were gonna hang out and go to dinner when we were both off work. John was working til 7:30 and I was working til 8. Well at 7 he calls saying he got off a little early and that they were going to go to NickelCade first because his friend's 2 year old wanted to play games before dinner. I probably only thought for a second that, oh he's got a wife and kid? Well, I got out of work a little late and arrived at nickelcade about 8:30. I spot John right away and he seems eager to see me and have me meet his friend. I got in and we start walking to the back of the arcade and John grabs my hand and starts booking it. I was so caught off guard and in no control that I feared falling flat on my face or bashing into one of the kiddie rides. By the time we stop running I practically yell at John, WHY DID YOU DO THAT??? Then he spins me around and everyone yells, SURPRISE! I went from total anger to total shock and didn't know how to react so the tears started coming. I wasn't sad or anything, I was shocked! Of coarse people were laughing and it was all a lot of fun. We had about 15 people show up. Some stayed and played games, others came and went. Ah, my husband did good. I'm a pretty easy person to surprise though. I never suspect a thing and I'll believe any lie you tell me. John had no friend from out of town and he didn't work that day at all. He really was so cute to put this all together. I love him so much! Anyway, kinda a long story but here's a funny video. Just remember, I was having so many emotions going off that I'm a little scatter brained. Also, wiping away many happy tears.

Oh my... everyone is asleep at my house and I just laughed out loud. I don't know why, but the picture of John grabbing your hand and making you run makes me crack up. I seriously can't stop! hilarious. The video is cute and who is that red bearded, screaming man in the background??? jk.
Love you and wish we could have been at the party to celebrate!
Way to go John! You did GOOD, son-in-law! Happy B-day one more time, Jader Bugs! See you two soon...can't wait! Love, Mom Shums
