I had the best birthday ever! All week I was excited because my birthday present was to go to a crop night at a local scrapbook store all night Friday, and all day Saturday. Friday morning (my birthday) Cameron told me to be sure and have my scrapbook bag packed so we could go out to dinner when he got home and then I could go straight to the scrapbook store from dinner. I worked all morning gathering all my things to be ready!
I went out to lunch with my mom, and then we hit up some stores on the way home. On the way into the one store we decided to switch and go into another. I saw a red Durango and thought oh that looks like our car. Not thinking anything of it, we went on in. We were gone much longer then I had hoped so I called Cameron and asked if we could go to dinner a little later then we had planned, he was happy to do this.
My mom went home and I put the kids down for a late nap, thinking they would sleep for Kimmy and Tyson who were babysitting. Cameron and I went out to dinner, we order our drinks and Cameron tells me that he forgot his wallet at home. I roll my eyes at him and say "well call Tyson he's at our house with Kimmy he'll bring it to us" Cameron got up was gone for awhile and comes back with his wallet, said that it had fallen down in between the seats. I thought oh good he didn't forget it. We eat our dinner, and Cameron just tells me his stomach was sick and he needed to go home. We paid the bill and left quickly! We pull up the front of our house and I see my friend Lynne's van in front our our house and I though she was just returning something to me, no big deal. I then saw my parents car in our driveway, and think "oh what are they doing here, I'll never be able to leave now!" Then we get out of the car and I hear Natalie screaming inside, "my mommy's here, my mommy's here" at the top of lungs! I turned to Cameron and he leans over and says... "Honey I didn't forget my wallet, and I don't have a stomach ache! Happy Birthday!" We walk inside and there are my friends and family all waiting to wish me a happy birthday!
I was totally surprised! Had no idea that any of that was coming! The red Durango that I saw at the store earlier in the day Cameron told me it was him and he was buying party decorations when he saw us heading in to that store he told the cashier that he had to go and then he saw us turn and go into the other store and he so he checked out and left the shopping area. I must say he did a great job decorating! Pink and brown everything! Cameron thought we'd be able to just get drinks and leave the restraunt that's why he told me he forgot his wallet, turns out he had ordered pizza for dinner and it was all waiting for us when we got home! My friends and family ate and left quickly and off I went to the scrapbook store!
I walk into the store toting along all my stuff, the lady looks at me and says "Are you Kerry?" Your the last lady to get here let me show you where your seat is. She takes me back to the work room where everyone busts out singing Happy Birthday, and she hands me 4 dozen roses from Cameron with a card on it saying "sorry I made you late for scrappin" It was so so wonderful! What a happy birthday it was! And for once, I didn't mind being late.
