happy birthday to gram vicki! we surprised mom with a little birthday celebration today at her house. the kids and i went to heather's after school, but we didn't tell mom. not only was it mom's birthday, but it was also the day mom officially moved into her house. we let stella nap and waited until later in the afternoon when we knew the movers would be finished. then we drove down groesbeck rd. (past grandma & grandpa's old house) to rahn's greenhouse. being there brought back so many memories of my grandparents. we picked out a beautiful "lipstick" plant for mom as a housewarming gift and then went over to surprise her. one problem. mom wasn't home. we waited and waited, and then finally i called her because we were worried she was never coming home! i had to give away the surprise. mom was at target buying some new things for the house, so i told her she had to come straight home because we were all there waiting for her! so, she did. and it was still a nice surprise. we had dinner together, sang happy birthday and had cake and enjoyed a beautiful evening outside in mom's backyard. it was a special day. one i was happy to be a part of and one i will always remember.
