I love Michelle too much to let her 30th birthday go by without a big celebration, so I ignored how cliche it might be and planned a surprise party for her.
Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen, and I did have a lot of help.
The party was on July 9th at the Rassmusen Center where we got married almost 6 years ago. Still Michelle had no idea because my brother and his wife allowed me to do a day swap with our nephew whose birthday is on the 9th. So we had fake parties planned, and real parties planned. It was a lot to keep track of. The good news is Michelle was completely surprised, and even teared up a little.
Part of the deception was a bounce house for the kids that Jonathan and Jolene got. Thank you so much! The kids loved it and aside from a chance to eat I think they spent most of the time out there.
Inside we were having fun with music and mingling and almost everyone made sure to get a picture taken at the photobooth complete with props and dry-erase conversation blobs that Michelle's father Bill made, thank you!
The decorations, the food, the cake... everything was great, and some people just could not wait. We sang Happy Birthday to Michelle and then dove in to the awesome pink and white paisley cake Jolene made.
While the cake was savored Michelle opened presents and the kids played on the stage.
It was a ton of fun and thank you so much to everyone who was able to attend for helping me make Michelle feel loved on her special day! And for those of you who wanted to come and were not able to make it, I showed Michelle all the e-mails so she knew.
