This weekend we went to Little Rock for Adam's brother John's highschool graduation and since we were gonna be there just two weeks before Adam's 30th birthday I decided I'd throw a surprise party for him! And surprise him, we surely did! Thanks to a little help from Bill (his Dad) we were able to get him out of the house so we could get everything set up and decorated just right! I went with a BBQ theme and used cowboy decor as centerpieces on the tables and for the memory board. Friends and family wrote funny memories of him along with encouraging words about him to put in a memory book with pictures. He had a good time reading all the notes after the party...I know he felt edified and encouraged by the words people took time to write.
Molly and her son, Little Joseph, Donna (Adam's Mom) and the Birthday Boy!
We had some delicious BBQ including pulled pork sandwiches and sausage links (which are Adam's all time favorite!) The rest of the menu included hot corn casserole, tastey coleslaw, potato chips and of course baked beans. For dessert I had Adam's favorite pies, Molly's famous chocolate peanut butter pies and some down home goodness, hot apple pies with vanilla ice cream!
It was a fun weekend filled with many celebrations! Thanks for helping to make a memory!
I'm so sad we missed it! Love you friend!
