SURPRISE! (I heart faces)
My mom may just kill me for posting this. (That would make a great surprise photo too) But I absolutley adore this picture. My mom turned 50 at the beginning of July. She has been talking for quite awhile on how she wanted to go on a cruise for her 50th. Because money has been tight for everyone she never thought that she would be able to go. Low and behold I made it happen. With the help of my brothers and her husband. I planned a day for my mom MONTHS before her birthday. Sent her on a scavenger hunt around town. Her final destination was at our favorite Mexicann Restarant on the river. We yelled happy birthday! She was confused because her birthday was 3 months down the road. Well... she opened her presents and I had made a scrapbook for her, she started crying half way through.. and then she saw the "WE ARE GOING ON A MEXICANN CRUISE" page.. and this is the image (along with many others leading up to this) I captured. LOVE IT! (sorry this was so long)
