Ana's Surprise Birthday Party

I must say Robert really caught me by surprise this past weekend and out did himself! I was under the impression that Robert and I were going to BBQ with our good friends Dan and Melissa this past Saturday, May 21st. On Friday, May 20th, Robert went shopping for the groceries for our small BBQ. He came home with A LOT OF food. He bought two racks of ribs, countless chicken breasts, lots of kelbasa, an amazing amount of side dishes and A LOT OF BEER AND WINE. I looked at Robert and asked him, "Why the heck did you buy so much food for just four people?" He responded by saying, "Hunny, I am going to cook for the week." I then asked him, "Why the heck did you buy so much beer and wine?" He really couldn't answer that question so I just went with it and embraced all the food, beer, and wine.

Anyhow, Saturday comes and Robert starts slow cooking the ribs about noonish. At about 7 pm the door bell rings. I thought it was going to be Dan and Melissa. It was my good friend Heather. At this point, I still didn't register that it was a surprise. That didn't stop me and Heather from enjoying a bottle of wine together!



A little bit later, the doorbell rings again and I thought it was going to be Dan and Melissa. It was my friend Jose. I realized that Robert had a surprise going on:). Later, the doorbell rings another couple times and Dan and Melissa showed up along with Kwami and Rinita. And Robert screams, "SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"



I finally figured out why Robert wanted my cousin Cindy (aka Tinkie) to come this weekend instead of Memorial weekend. He had a little something up his sleeves and he wanted her to be apart of it!

I had an amazing time with our friends and Robert. The food was great, the company was great, the beer and wine kept flowing, and we played a lot of Dance Central!

We are so blessed to have such a great group of friends and I am so blessed that I have such an amazing husband! Thank you Robert for such an enjoyable and memorable birthday weekend! I love you with all my heart!
