Surprise!



So, Matthew's 23rd birthday was yesterday (June 17) and he is always surprising me and giving me huge parties! So I decided that this year I was going to surprise him! :) His best friend is working out of state right now, so I figured it would mean a lot to him if kyle could be there. I decided since Kyle was going to be in town, that we wold do it a week early on the 12th! This would also help with the surprise element since he would NOT be expecting it at all- It all went perfectly, and we even got him out there and he seriously was so shocked! Kyle helped me and kept Matthew occupied while I was at the party to greet people and put the finishing touches on the party. I had food, live music, a gigantic blow up slip-n-slide and then the pool. I was SUCH a fun party.

This is RIGHT when he walked in the door! Everyone was standing outside and yelled SURPRISE!!

Since there really wasn't a "theme" to the party, I had a hard time thinking of a cake to do for his party. I went downtown to Lisa's Cake Boutique, (the BEST place in town-try her red velvet. TO. DIE. FOR.) and she had this super cute idea! I had to make the ice, it was just melted down craft beads and I had to bring his favorite beer bottles! I LOVED the way it turned out. It was definitely a hit.

This is me and Kyle. I don't really know how I only ended up with a picture with him but here it is! :) I was so happy he could be here for it. That was the icing on the cake for Matthew.
I don't actually have a picture of the slip-n-slide in the yard, but this one is just like it! It was a blast- I recommend it for parties of all ages! We played on this thing all night long!


Some of the girls that came and my little brother, Chris-


Matthew, Bailey (his little sister) and myself! It was great that the family all came and had fun! It was a great night :)

Some of the pictures are blurry because they were taken with a phone, I was horrible and forgot my real camera! I know Matt's mom took some with her camera and I'll try to get them and upload them soon so they aren't so blurry and give a bigger variety... I know she has some of Darren the musician who was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I would love to show ya'll him and some of the other people who showed up ha! Anyways, I'll try better to update more often on different things. Hope everyone has a GREAT week!
