A few months ago Brent sent an email out to me and Cran's sister Kate saying he wanted to throw Cran a surprise 30th birthday party. Kate and I gladly agreed to help in anyway possible. Emails were sent back and forth with the venue, date, and cover story changing every time. It was finally settled to have the party at Brent's parents house with the excuse that she'll be coming over to celebrate her birthday with his family. As the date got closer the secret was harder to keep. All I can say is thankfully Cran and I do a lot of our talking over IM so the big grin plastered across my face could not be see as I told my lies.
Saturday morning Cran and Mallory came over with some breakfast treats. Brent was "golfing with his friend" and they wanted to get out of the house for a bit. (Really he was setting everything up at his parents) We chatted about her plants for the day and she told us all about the dinner she was having at his parents that night. This time I was able to keep my face straight while my insides were jumping. I knew that she had NO idea about any of it.
And the party went off without a hitch. All the guests arrived. We hide in the garage with the doors shut. As Brent and Cran pulled into the drive and got out of the car we opened the garage doors and giggled as she peered in looking confused.
The WTF look.
Lots more pics if you want to see them. Great job planning Brent!
