This weekend, we flew to Albuquerque to celebrate 3 big events in 1 weekend (48 hours!). On Saturday night, we threw Meg (mindy's sister) a 30th surprise party! Two of Meg's favorite things are daisies and gift cards so we celebrated by having everything decorated with daisies AND by presenting her with a big box of gift cards from the group. Meg's birthday isn't until May 21st so she was completely surprised! She didn't even know the party was for her until the group started singing 'Happy 30th Birthday to you!'....She said, "ME!? This is for ME?!" (I am still waiting to get more pictures from Aunt Di but I'll post more soon.)

On Sunday, we celebrated an early Mother's Day for mom. She got lots of new pictures of her kids and grandkids, plus a new beach bag for her upcoming trips to Hawaii and Mexico!

That evening, we celebrated our 3rd and final party---Matt & Asthen's wedding shower thrown by Mom's best friends! It was a Mexican theme so we toasted margaritas and the happy couple wore sombreros.

We had to fly out the next morning so we didn't have time to see our ABQ friends or even go out for Mexican food, but it was a great whirlwind weekend regardless!

We'll be back!
