Surprise
Last Thursday, the day before Ainsley's birthday I got a text from one of her friends asking if they could throw Ainsley a surprise party at our house. So fun... how could you not say yes!
I was in charge of the food, and getting Ainsley out of the house so that everyone could arrive and hide. Her friends were in charge of invites sent via texts, the cake and decorations!
The amount of deceit and lies I had to tell... oh my! Stewart got Ainsley and Walker out of the house by encouraging them to go and practice discus at the school. The kiddos arrived a half hour before Ainsley was due home to decorate and set up.
One friend made a 3 layer cake by herself..so cute... I'm glad I was the only one who noticed "birthday" was spelled incorrectly, after all that hard work!
We pulled out the couch so that they could all hide behind it... oh my the loudness... I thought for sure she'd hear them before she even got to the door.
It was a classic "Surprise"mis-cue (luckily Ainsley was still getting out of the car with headphones in and didn't notice) to enjoy the real moment...
Such a fun night to remember... these friends are all her choir lunch buddies!
