Happy Birthday Mom

My mom turned 60 last week!!!  If you know my mom you know she doesn't want a big deal made of her.  This is just impossible when you turn 60!  A while back when my sibs and I suggested having a birthday party she quickly shut our idea down and absolutely DID NOT want us doing anything for her.  We even were told not to buy her gifts.  Well that is just unacceptable.  So we got planning a surprise party for her...

El Corral Steakhouse is a special place for my family so I decided to make reservations there. We got a room all to ourselves since we had 30 people there. We had to change our plans on who was delivering the birthday girl at the last minute. It was so great though, she had NO IDEA! At least she had no idea until she got there and like a a little snoop she peeked in the window where we were and saw my nephew and then all the rest of us! It was still great and we all had a wonderful time celebrating my wonderful mom. Happy Birthday Mom, you're the best!!
