Happy 30th Birthday Lisa!!

We couldn't let Lisa's 30th birthday go by without doing a surprise party! We remembered on Friday that her birthday was Sunday and got busy making plans. We were finding it difficult to make plans because we couldn't get a hold of John. We later discovered, after talking to Lisa's sister Rhonda, that John and Lisa went camping without the kids for their anniversary. How dare they go out of town without notifying us! ;) So we made all the plans with the hopes that Lisa didn't have anything going on. Then John got our messages on Sunday and informed us that Lisa had a softball game and there was no way she's bail on her team. John came through for us and contacted a gal on her team who then called Lisa and told her the game was canceled! :) Perfect. Everyone showed up at the clubhouse at 5:00 and Lisa showed up at 5:45 for what she thought was a Family Home Evening BBQ with just us. We all yelled surprise! It was fun and she had no idea which makes it that much better! We had a BBQ and went swimming and then played Quelf. Oh and KG and I had so much fun buying decorations for the party, everything that Lisa is not: Barbie! We had pink and purple balloons and a Barbie table cloth and banner. Plus we bought her a tiara and forced her to wear it throughout the party. She got a kick out of it and we all had lots of fun.

It took her a few minutes to get the hang of keeping her feet under her so she wouldn't roll.

KG finally took the birthday girl into the water.
Cliff was apparently quite the sight because everyone in the hot tub couldn't quit staring.

She finally made it to KG.
We love you Lisa and hope you had a great Birthday! :)
