My cute sister turned the BIG 4-0!
The week before her birthday her husband called and told me he was surprising her with
a trip to Arizona and wanted to know if it were ok for them to stay with us. Ummmm...YES!
I was soooo excited I could hardly contain myself.
He pulled her out of church and didn't tell her where they were going until they were on the freeway.
He had me text a funny little message asking about who was an their way to AZ.
It was so fun to be in on the surprise.
I probably drove Kendall nuts with all my texts reminding him about her
meds, gifts and such, but he did awesome.
I am so impressed.
He packed everything and did a good job too.
It was soooo fun to get to watch her open her packages.
Her sweet Missionary Son even sent her a package.
Here she is with her mission journal.
What a great idea.
When my kids got home from school we had a little family party.
we decided each candle was worth 10 years. :)
My kids absolutely adore Christy.
They were beyond excited when I told them she was coming.
It was so fun for them to be in on the Birthday celebration.
That night we headed over to Lisa's house
(Christy's good friend) for a yummy BBQ.
I got to make the cake and went with a Peanut Butter chocolate cake.
We got to spend the next day shopping, talking, eating and being together,
and let me tell you it was just what I needed.
Man I have missed her.
Unfortunately she got sick that night, but I sure had fun with her.
I absolutely adore my sister.
What a great example she has been to me throughout my entire life.
So excited for what the next 40 years bring.
Happy Birthday, Christy dear!
