Emily turned 40 in November, and I wanted to do something special. I got my sisters and sisters-in-law to drive to the Boise area and surprise Em with an overnight party. I picked up Chelsea in Ogden, and we had a fun time singing and talking all the way to Nampa. Taryn, Mom, and Cassidy drove another car, and Erika drove hers. The idea was that we'd meet at her nail salon where Pete had arranged pedicures or manicures for us. We were supposed to be inside waiting, but we ran late and she saw us in the parking lot, which only meant we missed her surprised face.
We got her a birthday sash and crown to wear all night as well.
After pedicures, we ate dinner at Tucanos in Boise.
Afterwards, we went to our hotel, which we had decorated with streamers and balloons (which was why we were late to the nail salon). We got her a cheesecake for her birthday cake.
We played games until late, slept not so restfully, visited Emily's house the next morning, and then we all headed home. Happy Birthday, Lou! I hope it was amazing!
