Surprise!!!

Brittany and I threw my dad a suprise party on Saturday night for his 50th birthday, and guess what my job was? I had to be the one to get him out of the house (not easy to do with my dad) So here was the plan: Brittany called him Thursday and told him that she had to work on Saturday, but when she got off, all of us would go out to his house for cake & ice cream, here is where I come in. I call my dad Saturday morning, and tell him that Brandon is going hunting with his dad so me and the kids will come out early and go to dinner before Brittany and Kale come out. So me and the kids get out to Tooele around 4:00pm, the play with grandpa for a little bit and then I suggest that we should get going to dinner so that we can be back when Brittany and Kale arrive. Well, dad has to shower, and then he has to shave, all of this, and I'm hoping that we can get out before guests start to arrive. I put the kids in the car, call Brittany to tell her we are heading out in 5 min., we leave for dinner, and the crew arrives (including Brandon who was not really hunting) to put the party together. I promise that this gets exciting, keep reading. I call Brittany when we are done with dinner and say to her "Are you out to dads house yet? Ok, we are on our way, we just left Applebee's." The whole time that I am driving my dad back to his house, his surprise party, my stomach has butterflys, we come around the corner of the mountain, looking up to his house and his response is "What in the hell is going on? God Damn it!" he attempts to jerk the steering wheel in the opposite direction, and then he trys to open his door to jump out, WHILE THE CAR IS MOVING! We arrive at the party and instantly everyone is asking me what his reaction was. "If only you could have been in the car with us!" Needless to say, MY DAD HAD A GREAT TIME! Thank you to my mom, to Tina and to everyone else that made this such a success, I know that he will never forget that day.

We love you dad!
