For my Mom’s 60th birthday, my brother, sister-in-law, and I threw her a surprise party. The whole party was book themed including the invitation and cake.We had a blast. She thought we was heading over to my brother’s house for dinner. As you can see the expression on her face, she was surprised to see so many friends and family gathered in her honor. I flew down to Reno to surprise her which was amazing! I hated that I had to share my mom with 40 other people but I loved that I could be there to celebrate her special day.
People sent us some of their favorite Diana stories that we framed and set out for everyone to read. It was so much fun reading about different chapters of her life.
We tried to incorporate the book theme into as many aspects of that party as possible including the drinks.
The cake was made by my sister-in-law, Molly. She is incredibly talented and makes the most amazing cakes ever! Anyone in Northern Nevada looking for cake?
Everyone needs a giant bottle of wine for their birthday!
Happy Birthday Mom! I love you!

It was a day I will never,ever forget. The hardest part was having to share you with so many people and than having to leave the next day. When are you coming back to Northern Nevada? I miss you so.
Thank you for such a memorable day.
