SURPRISE 40th BIRTHDAY!

Saturday night I had a surprise 40th birthday party for Tom! Well, it wasn't much of a surprise because I blew it with a Facebook email, go figure, don't ever come to me to plan a surprise! LOL Anyway I was sending an email to the Barnstead group, we all meet once a month for dinner, and I hit reply all, not thinking Tom was on that list. So Friday afternoon he called me and asked me how well I knew FB, I didn't quite understand what he was getting at, but he proceeded to ask how to send a message to all his friends, and I knew exactly what I did! I was so bummed but at least I just did it, not a couple of weeks ago and the thing is I wasn't even going to do it, but decided what the heck. Not sure if anyone else figured out he was on the email but oh well. He said he stewed about it all night Thursday at work. He wasn't going to tell me but I'm glad he did.

So since he knew about his surprise party it wasn't hard to get him to Hammerhead's that night. We picked up Chris and Kristi about 6:00 and headed down to Houlihan's but it was packed so we decided to go to the Moose for a drink, had a couple there, got signed up for my baby shower, then headed down to Hammerhead's. There was quite a crowd, it was a great turn out. Here's a few pics of the night:

 

 Here's Tom walking into Hammerhead's but I can't seem to rotate the picture.










 





 

Mom found a dance partner and it wasn't me this time - thank God! My friend Linda was the culprit this time.




And so was Missy and Brandi - Tom's cousins.


Dewey talked mom into playing shuffle board with Chris and Erica. I think mom and dewey won!
 


And right before we left, Tom was full! LOL



Overall it was a good night, thanks to Linda, mom, Sandy and Shari, we had lots of good food. Linda made turkey and dressing sandwiches, mom made meatballs, Sandy made Enchilada meatballs and Shari made cucumber sandwiches. We also had chips and dip and salsa and chex mix. Oh and of course the cake. We didn't have many leftovers so all must have been pretty good.
