I'm so excited! My mom just retired after working 20 years at this place. I have 2 sisters and a brother that live out of town, 4 and 7 hours away. They are all coming into town today with their families. My mom has no clue they are coming. They are all coming to my house, plus about 20 other guests tonight. My mom thinks that we are going out to dinner together tonight and that she is coming over to pick us up. But NOPE! We are actually having a big surprise retirement party for her!

I've never had a suprise party for anyone, let alone have 35 people at my house for it! I'm so nervous and excited! This will be so much fun! My kids are so excited to see all their cousins. We will have a 10 yr old, twin 7 yr olds, two 4 yr olds, a 3 yr old, two 2 yr olds and twin 4 month olds. And a whole bunch of adults!
