Even though I begged him not to (and yes – he lied straight to my face), Scott threw me a wonderful surprise 30th birthday party last weekend. He knows all too well how nosy I am – he planned it almost a month early so that I wouldn’t be suspicious at all. Well it worked. We went out for dinner and then to my mom’s for what was supposed to be a family bonfire. I was completely shocked to see a bunch of my friends and family there too. My sister Betsy and her boyfriend Nick flew in from DC with my niece Stella. It was so wonderful to see them, even though we missed my other sister, Amy. And I really couldn’t believe my good friend Heather came all the way from Seattle. I hadn’t seen her for over 7 years! We had a great weekend catching up.
I actually went the entire weekend without taking a single picture, but Scott snapped this one of Heather and me in front of the house we used to live in: 
And another snap of Nicholas and Stella saying goodbye at the airport – before all the tears started flowing!
