So obviously we came out for Sandy's birthday, and what kind of a birthday would it be without a party?? And what made it so fun was that she had NO CLUE! The party was on Sunday at AJ's house. The plan was to go to church, and then Micah was going to take her on a bike ride to help pass the time before we were due to arrive. Of course she suggested on the route that takes them past AJ's house, but Micah was able to suggest a different route and keep her in the dark about our sneaky plotting :) While Micah and Sandy were on their bike ride, Dan and I were on the computers. Hey-he had a lot to learn and explore! :)
When they got back from their ride, we told Sandy we wanted to take the boys to the park. I rode with Sandy and Larry (so I could video) and Dan rode with Micah and the boys (we told Sandy that Micah wanted to talk to Dan about something). Larry had some signs made up that lined the street going to AJ's house-but there is a back route to get to AJ's from their house. So we had to be sure to choose a park that would take us the other way. After we got on the road Sandy wanted to call AJ and tell him to meet us at the park (glad she suggested we call him so it was less obvious). Larry "gave him a call" and he said yes he would meet us at the park, but wanted to show the boys something at his house (a new machine or ramp or something). So now we were "detouring" to AJ's place and it would take us along the road we needed for her to see all the signs Larry put together. Perfect! So I took a video, and asked her to read the signs aloud. She got a little emotional ;) so a few of them are difficult to hear...but it's hilarious how many times she hits Larry's arm! ;)She was 100% overwhelmed and surprised!

So many friends and family came out to show Sandy how much she means to them. It was a great surprise!
AJ and his Godson Devin :) All this was possible because of this wonderful guy. Good job AJ!
