Thursday night Feb 4th. David and I went to Columbus to the Temple. I wanted to take some soup to my cute neice Steph and her husband B. So, I reminded David to go to Steph's as we were leaving, (because sometimes we are flaky and just drive on home). He did. I got out, rang the door bell and walla!!! there was Brandon.... Steph.... Tylana???.....Moana....?? Lisa???.... Mom and Dad...??? Peni...???
My mind might have believed Peni, since she is Stephs mom, however, I couldn't grasp seeing Tylana, are you kidding, in Ohio, then Lisa and Mo, Mom and Dad, am I dreaming, pinch me. I was stunned beyond belief. It was the most surprising thing I have experienced. I can not believe they pulled it off and not even Micah told me about it. Micah told me earlier in the week that he thought I was going to have fun on my birthday. I figured Tori, David and Becky were planning a surprise YW party. I had no idea my family would be here for the party. It was absolutely amazing.

It will be a treasure forever.
Love you all,

That was seriously SOOO much fun!! I think you need to turn 50 more often. At least once a year ;0) so fun to have everyone here even if it was for just a short while. Love you!
P.S. Sorry it took me so long to get you the pictures.
50?! Really?! Wow! I remember when you were like 30! It looks like you had a great time - how wonderful that your family could all travel to be out there with you! And to think - 50 lasts ALL year!
Congrats Darla!
