This past weekend, we went to down to surprise Tammy for her 39th birthday.
We (Cathi, Mark, Lynse, Kristen, Brent, Brian & I) planned this out a month for this… and this is what happened:

We love you, Tam! I’m so glad you were born 39 years ago… and so blessed to call you friend.






























guess who’s all teary???
tammit, ninjetta!
love you. wish you lived closer.
oh. and srsly….i was SO stunned. look at my near comatose reaction. aye-yi-yi.
and what was that weird shuffle dance you did at my house?
and why did brent go in for a kiss with brian?
and why were brian and brent talking about clothes?
the best was when you “expected” to see Brian and me at the door… and lynse and kristen were there too. you did the double take! YAY!!!
shuffle dance – the dance i did at the stegall’s while we were waiting to surprise you.
brent & brian kiss – i don’t know. guess they missed each other too?
brent & brian clothes – um… i really don’t know.
That was so nice! Looks like you guys had fun. Loved the song and the credits including the twitter names.
ha! they are ALL worth a follow, so i had to list it
jen says theyre ALL worth a follow. but rand, as long as youre following me – youre good.
jenni – you are beyond wonderful! thank you so much for putting this together. i love you muchly! like a lot of muchly.
i will never forget this birthday! ever!
oh, and remember the time we went out for breakfast and the waitress totally ripped us off and got like a 40% tip out of us?
oh yah. GOOD TIMES!!
love you!
well… you know it was originally Chad’s idea, which then came through Lynse. i just ran with it… cuz i’m a runner (not really).
yah, i know sucka. but thanks for putting this whole video together.
dork.
i mean, i love you so much.
dang, i miss you guys. uuuuuuugh.
soon!
come back!!!
awwww, i love her! so glad you all got to celebrate such a rockstar together!
wish you could have joined us. next year? for her 40th? and bring Trisha with you
yes! come out for my 40th, brandi!!! please???
LOVE the soundtrack!
The people are kinda OK too.
This kind of thing doesn’t make it any easier for Diane and I to realise we’ve not really met all of you yet…
*sigh*
awww… but you know what’s crazy? i don’t even think that way since we talk ever week, if not more with LifeGroup. You two are instrumental in my life, at least. irreplaceable, really.
Same for us. Definitely.
But there is something v.special about taking relationships that next step too. Bonds of friendship tightened, etc, etc.
I’ll start getting all philosophical here if I’m not careful
we all have goals to meet you in diane IN PERSON some day!
well…i do! jenni SAYS she does – but, you cant trust a ninja.
blah blah blah
this just makes me so happy… there is no better feeling in the world than seeing the joy of friends. Even friends I haven’t met yet
soon, sara… soon!
i love you.
I smiled through all of this, and teared up a bit too! I totally moved at the WRONG time.
Did I see Travis hanging in the back?? haha!
yes, bran! that was travis! he was part of this whole surprise.
you being here wouldve been SO special!
Ohhh…I love this!
i love you!
kristen needs a pic. cuz she needs a blog.
The problem with that is I suck at writing
kristen – im gonna hurt when i see you.
oh this was so fun! i’m all smiles over here! i love that you surprised her, and that you all got to celebrate HER together!
