Kisses for the bday girl!

This past 4th of July, the weekend traveling continued on to Austin to surprise my best friend on her birthday! Well I thought it would be a surprise. Her wonderful husband Eric and I had been planning this surprise party for months. I thought it would be so neat to throw Sarah a party on her 25th Birthday because birthdays have always been a bit of a let down for Sarah. Since its July 5th often times people are with family or on vacation celebrating the 4th. So this year I thought if I gave lots of people plenty of notice we would have a good turn out for this wonderful gal!! Well we did have a successful party with delicious food and tons of fun. However, Sarah, or should we say Snoopy McSnooperton knew about the party since she saw her husband's facebook message from me about a month ago.

We had a wonderful time regardless of the unsuccessful surprise. Eric and I did a lot of sneaky work but we couldn't have pulled it off without the help of Sarah's friend, Adrienne. She was great!! Here are a few pics of the weekend. Cal came down, across, or whatever to spend the weekend with us too! We felt fortunate that he took a bit of a break before the super intense studying started. All in all i think it ended up being good for him. Now its big time studying for the big guy! I won't see him until we go to San Fransisco but I hope he knows I'm thinking about him constantly and I know that all the hard work he is putting in will be worth it. So proud of you babes!!!

And Mrs. Newton, I hope you had the best birthday ever! I was so glad to spend the weekend with you- after missing so many of your birthdays in our 14 years as friends! Love ya!
