Gramma's Birthday!

Last weekend, we hosted a surprise birthday for Derek's mom's 60th birthday!  I think she was shocked!!

This was her face when she walked in the door followed by this series of comments...
"What in the hell is going on?"
"How did you do this, you have a baby!" - to me
"What are you guys doing here?"
"OMG, you got your hair done!!"
"OMG...It's so good to see you!"
"I wish I wasn't wearing this outfit"
"Where's my grandbaby??"

Stephen was able to sneak into the family photos so we could display pictures of Joyce through the years.


Stephen also made galley's to showcase what was popular during each decade (music, culture, current events, style, etc.) Very cool to see.
For food, we did "Desserts of the Decades".  We had a special dessert that was popular during each decade...unfortunately for us there was a lot left over...not good when you are trying to drop the baby weight!


Red Velvet cake, yum!
Another picture to show how I had everyone sardined into the dining room to shout "surprise"

Where is my grandbaby?! (Yes, she is in a swimsuit....we pick our battles)


Making her way around to the guests

 
A family picture, unfortunately we never remember to take these, but this one is good!

Joyce and her co-workers and friends plus baby Grayson

Blowing out the candles!  Happy Birthday Joyce, hope you had a great one!
