Next thing we knew Ralph took charge and called for a surprise party at Meme's house. The cover story being that Ralph would cook a family dinner for dad's birthday (his birthday was right around Beth Anne's) at her parents house and she would come right after church to join them. Anne, Leezah and I would be hiding in the shadows (with our hubby's too) and turn this into a surprise soiree for our BA (and Big Tom too of course!:)
Ralph made a spectacular italian dinner (his specialty...and would rival Toscana...AMAZING), there was wine, there were chocolate martinis, a fire out back, Anne had the princess cake made, Leezah brought the champagne and I was the balloon lady. The kids were still up to witness which was a cute touch I thought.
Here's how it went down...
Ralph...you pulled it off...think we really got her!...
Dianne and Tom we thank you for being such gracious hosts...your house is beautiful just like your daughter:)...would expect nothing less!
