surprises are fun

Last night I set up a surprise party for a friend and wonderful singer Caroline. Yes, it happened to be my birthday too... but it was a blast to set up this party with friends from the choir and band from the church. You may know, I am all about the food! So Michael J. (friend and piano player from church) and I worked in the kitchen with all the goodies: kabobs with chicken, shrimp, onion, green pepper, and squash; avocado, cheese, garlic stuffed mushrooms; bacon wrapped shrimp; avocado and campari tomato with balsamic and olive oil; and JB (friend and piano player) brought the home made pound cake and amazing topping, meatballs, and wow... there was a lot of great food.

We got together about 6:30 p.m. and everyone was prompt and also helped out a great deal to get ready. Of course my wonderful wife, Stacy, had gotten the place in perfect shape.

Caroline arrived just past 7 p.m. and walked into the house... and Surprise! It was great... she didn't have a clue, and we had a wonderful evening being together.

Several people said it was the "best choir rehearsal ever." Seriously! :)
