The surprise party for Craig last night was a complete success!! While he said afterwards that certain things I said/did had him a bit suspicious (leading up to the event), he was completely surprised! The party was held at Melanie, Rich and Cindy's duplex and they were such a huge help co hosting the party with me. I worked all week long preparing food and running it all the Tillman/Jackson house. I even brought our tent, sleeping bags, pack and play, change of clothes, ect. so we could spend the night. The weather held through the evening but about 2am in started really raining hard and did not let up until about noon. We put the kids to bed inside so it was just Craig and I in the tent. Angie and Moira also roughed it with us in their own tent! About 6 of us went out to breakfast in the morning and then Craig, the girls and I went back to Mel's and relaxed for a while before beginning the clean up and packing everything home. The girls were beat and too good naps this afternoon, as did Craig and I!
The surprise!

Jena (Craig's cousin) and Reagan

I was really pleased with the turn out. Ryan and Shannan made it down which was really great, it wouldn't be the same without those two. Ryan's brother came out, our neighbors, Allen and Eryn, Jena and about 5 friends from Legacy. Cindy, Melanie and Rich were there and Angie and Moira made it later in the evening. We played one silly game that I put together, for which the prise was a coffee mug with pictures of Craig and the heading, "Craig is Awesome." A friend from the Legacy lab won but decided the mug would be better suited for Craig himself:0) Over all a very fun night!
