Happy Birthday Mitey!
Sweet Michael has been getting so excited about his best friend, Chris, coming to town for weeks now. What he didn't know is that I've been planning a surprise trip for him for months. While Michael was at work on Thursday I drove little Grahamy to Birmingham to meet GiGi and Uncle Kevin. I picked Michael up from work and we headed to the airport to pick up Chris-or so he thought.
Michael put on a smile but i could tell he was disappointed Chris was coming to Nashville. I wouldn't let him see his boarding pass or the check in counter because I wanted him to figure out where he was going. You can see his earphones were in as well. My plan was working just perfect until we boarded the plane and our seat mate sat down. I told him what was going on but he still wanted to wish Michael a Happy War Eagle. That's when the conversation began and the question, "so where are you from" had to happen. Central Florida gave it away but he still had no idea what I had in store for him.
Much to his surprise again, I had Chris and Ashley meet us at our destination along with our good friends Tim and Shannon.
Finally I can breath after keeping this a secret from everyone for so long. Sorry to those who may feel left out of the surprise. I had to keep it quite for my own sake because I knew I would want to tell everyone all of the fun plans I had and I just knew I would slip up somewhere.
Michael wore this smile all weekend long!Thank you Chris, Ashley, Tim, Shannon, and Lucy for making this the best birthday ever for Michael!!!
My next surprise was something my husband has talked about since I've known him. He's always wanted to take a "behind-the-scenes" tour of Disney so that's what we did. Let me just say, Disney has it down to a science.
We had such a fun weekend and boy did Graham have fun having his GiGi, PawPaw and Uncle Kevin all to himself. Every time I called, I could hear him laughing and talking in the background. What a special weekend he had himself.
