30th Anniversary Party

This weekend I went home for my parent's 30th surprise anniversary party (actually my dad knew about it). My mom's friend Dotty who was her maid of honer gave her a surprise party at her house last night. I told my mom the reason I was going home this weekend was because my friends back home were going to take me out for my birthday. Friday evening we went to 7 Leguas and during dinner my dad goes "Christa is Baby Caitlin coming"? ( We have called Cait Baby Caitlin ever since she was born for some reason haha. Even my youngest cousin Abby who is 5 calls her that). My dad caught himself and tried to act like he didn't know what he was talking about. I was kinda suspecting my mom might of knew what was going on.

So anyways, Dotty told her a year or so ago that she wanted to throw them a 30th anniversary party. My mom has kinda been wondering if she was going to throw them one soon. So Saturday my moms friend Pat picks her and my dad up to go to Dotty's. I leave shortly after to meet my family in the Kroger parking lot so they could follow me to Dotty's house. When we got there my grandparents, aunts, uncles, Caitlin, and I all walk in and say SURPRISE!!! My mom starts cracking up laughing and says, "Is this for Diagnostician's Week"? My mom is a Diagnostician for a school district and one week out of the school year is Diagnostician's week. My mom always jokes around that no one buys her anything. She always email friends and family giving them an address and a phone number to her favorite candy story in Houston (Keggs Candy).

Dotty served appetizers, drinks, and cake...it was very nice. One of my mom's friends husband is a photographer so he also took a lot of pictures! Once we get some copies of them...I'll post them! My mom and dad got silverware for one of their anniversary presents!!!! Now we finally do not have to share a fork every time I come home!! Afterwards, some of us went to 7 Leguas for margarita's and Mexican food! I introduced everyone to my favorite waiter Miguel! Tonight a couple of my friends are coming over so we can watch the premiere on Lifetime of the Natalee Holloway movie. She is the girl that went missing four years ago during a senior trip her and her friends took to Aruba. I hope everyone had a great weekend!!
