Surprise Success!!

So I got this idea last night that I'd turn our little Memorial Day Cookout today into a surprise party for Dave. His birthday is Tuesday. I had pretty much finished dessert yesterday . . . so I got to thinking . . . because he's driving the church van, he gets home about an hour after us. Perfect!

So Charity and I fled church a little early in route to get out our party supplies. To the Dollar Tree for balloons and Wal*Mart for cards . . . I'm bad about cards, I always get them at the last minute. Ran home, decorated the table and finished the frozen strawberry dessert thingy and put the candles in it. He called for a ride home from the church and Mom so sweetly went and picked him up, while I completed the finishing touches.

SURPRISE!!
I See You:
Enjoy some corn:

Our Memorial Day Dessert/Dave's Birthday Cake:
He was SURPRISED!! Yay! And I was more so . . . that I had pulled it off!! Well, he did wonder about the red, white and blue star necklaces Charity was wearing when she went to pick him up. He asked her where she got them and she said, "Dollar Store." He knew we were up to something, but thought it wasn't until Tuesday.
Whoo hooo!!
