Mom's 60th Birthday weekend

Beginning of September was my mom's 60th birthday so the first weekend of the month, all of my siblings went to Houston to celebrate (while leaving the kids at home! Marshall and baby Lucy were the only kids in attendance for obvious reasons). We were able to keep everything a secret from her so it was surprise after surprise as people trickled in. She had an idea that Kari and Kristin were coming but not anyone else. Her reaction to every new person was priceless! It was such a fun weekend! TOO SHORT, but very fun. Friday morning, we spent some girl time together and got pedicures and lunch, then met up with the boys for dinner at Cheesecake factory later on. Went home and just chilled and watched a movie, then Saturday morning, kept things pretty low key at home, then went to lunch at Pappasito's. Us sisters went on to do some shopping that afternoon while my two brothers and dad took off to Austin for the BYU vs UT game! Ha! We spent the evening hanging out while trying to catch a glimpse of the boys on the 50 yard line of the game, lol! Anyways, love my family so much! It really was quite the trip for all us siblings to spend some time together without so many distractions (kids!). Miss all of you already!
