Dad and I were able to pull off Mom's birthday surprise on Wednesday. He flew in about an hour before Mom's plane landed and we were both waiting for her at the baggage claim. He was sitting right next to me and she didn't even realize it until she was almost all the way to our seats. She even happened to see Ron at the gas station. Luckily, he hadn't picked up Dad at work yet or they would have had a lot of explaining to do. Grandma and Grandpa also stopped by on their way back to Wisconsin. It was great to see them. We all went out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse Wednesday night. We drove them (took two cars) to North Fort Worth on Thursday morning so they wouldn't have to worry about driving in traffic. Once they headed North we went to Cabella's for a few hours. I know that surprises most of you that we visited Cabella's while Dad was here :)
Friday night we went to Hibachi for dinner. The food was great and it is always fun watching them cook your dinner in front of you.
Saturday we hit some garage sales in the neighborhood and found some cute clothes for all the grandkids - including the one that isn't here yet!
Saturday night we invited some people over to the house to celebrate Mom's BIG 6-0! The guys watched the Mavs game up in the "Man Cave" - that is what Dad has named the movie room, the girls were downstairs and Kami & her friend took the kids to the park. We had a great time!
We took Mom and Dad to the airport on Sunday morning then went home and crashed. I think we both took a 2+ hour nap. The baby is my excuse for the long nap, I'm not sure what excuse Danny has :)
We look forward to Mom, Jessica and the kids coming in June for a week. I'm going to try and get up to Wisconsin/Minnesota this summer in late June/early July, but I have to wait and see what my dr. says. I would like to stay for a couple weeks and enjoy some pregnant Wisconsin summer instead of pregnant Texas summer, but I'm not sure when I will have to start going to the doctor every 2 weeks. I have an appointment on Monday so we'll see what he says.
About that appointment....we are hoping the ultrasounds confirms that girl he told us at the last appointment. We don't have a reason to think otherwise, but it does make me a little nervous because her room is filling with pink quickly. Think Pink!
I should have more pictures next week.

What a great surprise, I can't believe you pulled it off! I'm betting your doctor will let you go as long as you stay healthy! I opted not to travel with Brian to a conference in June but I figured at 34 weeks a long weekend with a time change probably wasn't the best decision. I can't wait to see more pictures of you and the baby's room.
THE BIG PART OF PULLING IT OFF WAS AARON AND I WASNT EVEN NAMED THANKS
I'm sure Danny naps to keep the house quiet for you...he sure is a great guy! He goes on and on about how cute you are.
Yes it was a great surprise and thank you AARON for making me think that you needed Dad so bad that weekend. It was a such a fun time... They all did a great of pulling it off. THANK YOU. Now how am I going to top that when Dad turns 60??
I love my son in law and he is a great guy. BUT!!!! Lets get a name on that last comment!!!?
We are looking forward to our trip in June also. What a great house they have and yes Dad named it the "man cave" I am sure your brothers are willing to come down and check it out themselves.
Love Mom
