Curt turned 65 today so I've been planning for weeks to give him a surprise party--and was he ever surprised! I sent out invitations over a week ago. I invited 9 couples--they were all able to come but one couple (Joe & Joan, Wally & Gail, Denise & Francis, Donny & Leigh Ann, Kendall & Sherry & Braxton, Gail & Pam, Dale & Kay, Kelly & Leslie. John & Barbara couldn't come--it was his sister's birthday celebration in Provo). We had barbecued turkey, salads, rolls, baked beans, dutch oven potatoes, and cake and ice cream, of course. I have never seen Curt in a situation where he was at a loss for words--it was priceless. He REALLY had no clue. Joe, Wally, and Donny took Curt out to the golf course this afternoon so I could get everything set up. It was all worth it.
This is Curt right after he got to the house and saw all the people. When they were getting closer to home, Joe said Curt said "What the hell's going on over at Granny's?" Joe about split a gut. As you can see from the one picture, Curt was so shocked he flipped me the bird! That's gratitude for ya!
Here are the black balloons flying from the garage. Curt didn't even notice them when he first got there--he was so flabbergasted he didn't know what to say!
Isn't that a cute cake! John Deere--he always wanted a tractor like that!

That's awesome. I wish we could've been there. It looks like a lot of fun. I'm glad it was a total surprise.
Mom it looks like you did a good job at doing the party. I wish that we could have been there to. I am glad that it all went good.
I had a laugh tonight. Sounds like you had a blast. I really don't know how you pulled it off without Curt knowing. Tell Curt, Happy Birthday!!!
