Mom’s Surprise Party

by Shane Holden – April 3, 2010

Mom’s 57th birthday was on Wednesday, and since this one was in a way very special, we all planned a surprise party at Billy & Alicia’s for her.  They did most of everything, and me and Chase had the task of getting her there.  We invited her brother and sisters, and their children and their children as well.  All in all we had about 19 or 20 people there.  Mom was completely surprised, and told us on the way home that was the first time she has been able to cry since her surgery.  Mom made a little speech during it before anyone left that would make your eyes tear up, but she said that the party and seeing everyone together was a prayer answered for her.  There has been some feuds between some of the siblings, and she never expected everyone to get back together for a holiday or birthday ever again like we all used to at Christmas when my Grandma was still alive.  It went great, and everyone had a great time reminiscing and catching up on each others lives.
