So... I know what you really wanted to know! How'd the birthday shindig go?
Well, since you asked: FABULOUS! My mother did not know that I was going home to see her so she was surprised to see me walk in the door. She was already in pj's. When my stepdad came in he acted surprised to see me to and I played into it. Then, tables turned. Sam: "I think it's time for you to put your clothes back on. We're going out." From there the surprises kept popping: the car service, going to pick up my stepbrother and his lady friend, the restaurant (Rats at the Grounds for Sculpture in NJ). The food was amazing, the drinks tasty, the company wonderful. We got her to stop tearing up long enough to taste every delicious thing that came out. And then sprung the last part of the surprise on her: tickets to Cirque du Soleil's Dralion. Hurray!
It was a wonderful night. For a woman who is both difficult to surprise and wary of big events this was a total success. I'm so happy we made an awesome night for her. Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooove you Mom!
