JEFF TURNS "40" !!!

OKAY, I HAVE TO SAY THAT I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN ABOUT BLOGGING! I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY THAT I REALLY HAVENT HAD TIME. JANUARY WAS SUCH A CRAZY MONTH FOR ME. I HATE JANUARY!!!! JEFF TURNED 40 THIS MONTH AND I HAD 3 REALLY BIG SURPRISES I HAD TO PULL OFF. THE FIRST ONE WAS A FAMILY AND FRIEND PARTY. WE HAD A GREAT TURN OUT.. AT ONE POINT I HONSETLY DIDNT THINK MY HOUSE COULD HOLD ANY MORE PEOPLE. THERE WERE ABOUT 40 PEOPLE THAT SHOWED UP THAT NIGHT!! JEFF WAS VERY SURPRISED... HE , OF COURSE, PARTIED LIKE A ROCK STAR AND NEEDLESS TO SAY HE DID NOT MAKE IT TO WORK THE FOLLOWING DAY. HE HAD A HARD TIME PARTING FROM THE PORCELAIN GOD!! I FELT A LITTLE RELIEVED THAT I PULLED OFF THIS PARTY AND JEFF REALLY APPRECIATED IT. OKAY ON TO #2 SURPRISE. WEDNESDAY WAS HIS ACTUAL BIRTHDAY. I HAD ARRANGED FOR A COUPLE OF HIS BUDDIES AND THE FAMILIES TO MEET AT TIMBERMINE EARLY SO ME, JEFF AND THE KIDS WOULD GET THERE A LITTLE LATER AND THEN THEY COULD YELL "SURPRISE".! I SPENT THE DAY GETTING BALLOONS AND DECORATIONS, GETTING THE CAKE, RUNNING UP TO TIMBERMINE AND DECORATING. THIS IS THE FUNNY PART I PROMISE.....SO WE ARRIVED AND WE WALK INTO THE ROOM ( WHICH IS DECORATED WITH TONS OF BALLOONS) NO ONE IN SIGHT AND MY "BLOND" HUSBAND SAYS "WOW LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE ELSE IS TURNING 40 TOO!!!!" AND THEN EVERYONE YELLS SURPRISE!! OK....THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WAS DUMBFOUNDED AND HE COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT HE JUST SAID WHAT HE SAID...WE WERE ALL LAUGHING PRETTY HARD ..NEEDLESS TO SAY I GOT JEFF AGAIN!!!!
I WAS FEELING A BIT MORE RELIEVED THAT WED. NIGHT WENT OFF SO WELL AND THAT I WAS 2 FOR 3. SO THE NEXT BIG AND FINAL GIFT TO JEFF WAS A SURPRISE TRIP TO LAS VEGAS. I REALLY HAD TO PULL THIS ONE OFF!!HERES THE STORY.... ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE MY DAD CALLED JEFF AND TOLD HIM THAT HE WAS LOOKING TO BUY A TRUCK OUT OF SLC. COUPLE DAYS LATER MY DAD CALLED AGAIN AND TOLD HIM HE BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND NEEDED JEFFS HELP PICKING IT UP ON FRIDAY NIGHT. I TOLD JEFF THAT I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE KIDS ICESKATING WHILE HE WAS HELPING MY DAD WITH THE TRUCK. I RAN MY FANNY OFF ON FRIDAY PACKING FOR THE KIDS ( THEY WERE STAYING WITH MY PARENTS) , PACKING FOR JEFF AND I AND GETTING IT ALL LOADED IN MY CAR WITHOUT HIM KNOWING. I ALSO MADE A HUGE POSTER FOR DOWN AT THE AIRPORT. OK SO JEFF IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT HELPING MY DAD WITH THIS TRUCK THING ON A FRIDAY NIGHT! HE WAS VERY UPSET AND WAS ACTUTALLY KIND OF MEAN TO ME BECAUSE I WOULDNT HELP HIM GET OUT OF HELPING MY DAD!! HAHAHA!!!! WELL I DRIVE OVER TO MY PARENTS AND DROP OFF HIM AND ZACH. MY MOM SAYS SHE WILL HANG OUT WITH ME AND LEXIE FOR THE NIGHT. SO WE DRIVE LIKE CRAZY TO GET DOWN TO THE AIRPORT, PARK THE CAR, TAKE THE SHUTTLE OVER TO THE TERMINAL AND WAIT FOR MY DAD TO PULL UP WITH JEFF. WE HAD ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO SPARE. SO ME AND LEXIE ARE STANDING ON THE CURB HOLDING THE POSTER AND MY DAD PULLS UP. OK... THE LOOK ON JEFFS FACE IS CONFUSSION AND PRICELESS!!!!! HE DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHAT WE WERE ALL DOING AT THE AIRPORT AND WHY ME, LEXIE, AND MY MOM HAD COME DOWN TO LOOK AT THIS TRUCK. ( DUH READ THE POSTER JEFF!) OKAY SO IT TOOK HIM ABOUT 5 MINUTES TO FIGURE IT OUT!! YES I PULLED THIS ONE OF AS WELL!! I AM THE MASTER AT LYING (NOT A GOOD THING) AND PULLING OFF A VERY STRESSFUL WEEK FOR MY "OVER THE HILL" HUSBAND.!!! WE WENT TO VEGAS AND HUNG OUT WITH SOME OF OUR CLOSE FRIENDS FOR THE NEXT 4 DAYS! WE WENT TO SPENCERS FOOTBALL PRACTICE AND ALEXIS ROLLER HOCKEY GAME. WENT OUT TO DINNER, WATCHED MOVIES AND HUNG OUT FOR THE SUPERBOWL. WE HAD SUCH A RELAXING TIME AND IT WAS REALLY NICE TO SEE ALL THEIR CUTE KIDS. I WISHED WE COULD SEE THEM MORE OFTEN. MAN THIS IS A LONG POST. I HAD A LOT GOING ON AND I WAS A LITTLE, OKAY A LOT, STRESSED OUT! WHEN WE GOT BACK I JUST HUNG OUT IN MY SWEATS ALL DAY ON TUESDAY. I THINK I DESERVED IT!!! MAN I REALLY DONT KNOW HOW JEFF CAN TOP ME BUT I GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE!!
