Surprise

Last Saturday night I had the privilege of being a part of a surprise party for a very special person. It was a fun event to plan and participate in.

Her husband and I had been working for months on this party. We finally settled on Tye's Restaurant in Downtown Jackson. It just seemed like the perfect atmosphere. Picture this, a Saturday night, pulling up on a brick road to a downtown restaurant, it just felt movie-like. You have to understand Downtown Jackson, MS. There's not much of that funky downtown atmosphere, but people are trying to bring it back to it's glory days. I hope they succeed because there's a lot of character and it could be a fabulous place.

Back to the party, so everyone arrived on time and then the happy couple arrives and the expression on her face was priceless. She is so sophisticated, that I have no funny "slips" to report. The night was as perfect as anyone could hope for.
