SURPRISE! There ain't no party like a Frisby Surprise party! So back in March Eryn starting thinking this was a big Birthday year for my mom, 29 again... or 60 which she will get really mad that I used her actual age! Sorry mom. Anyway after many conference calls and so many emails we got the party planned and surprised my mom good!
We had ALMOST all the siblings there, except for my oldest sister Mindy whom we missed, but had her two handsome boys there instead! There are 9 of us in case you are wondering!
The waiter offered to take the pictures and I was like no thanks I have a remote, but everyone gave me a hard time so I ended up giving in, against my better judgment too. So this is what came out.... I've had better...
Waiting to get the party started, we had a private room for our 5 course meal. and I made a slide show.
My handsome nephews, now 19 and 17! Still not used to that! They flew up from AZ for the big event.
Bindley thought Ty was a crack up! She has to be the happiest baby I have ever seen. She laughs so loud for someone so small. It was adorable. Dawnelle flew in from WI for the party!
It was an awesome week, even though Eryn ended up missing her 6:20am flight the next morning it was well worth the time and the travel prep. It was so fun to get together with my family, the last time we were all together was for my wedding so it has been a while! I love them and I love my mom and hope she had a WONDERFUL birthday!!!! She deserves it!

Great job planning Jill! What a fun night. And, just so you know, I cried the 3rd time I watched it just now.
LOVE THE SLIDESHOW! Thanks for including it!!! And it wasn't exactly a "killer" birthday, thank goodness!!! You rock, thanks for driving like a mad woman to try to get me to airport on time, and waiting forever to be sure you didn't miss me!!! I LOVE YOU! Can't wait to see you again...in LONDON!
How fun!! Your mom looks FABULOUS for 60! Um, I mean 29!!
Exciting-- It does seem impossible to get the whole family together. I am sure your mom appreciated the party!
O.K. Jill. Just because you are soon leaving for London, I won't be mad that you used my real age. But don't do it again! Just kidding. What a great family I am blessed to be part of. I can't even imagine the effort and sacrifice you each went to to make this birthday happen. I LOVED it! Thanks so much.
