SURPRISE!

On Saturday we all worked as a family and helped to throw Bonnie a surprise 60th birthday party! Sheryl and Jess came in on Friday evening and stayed with us to hide out from Bonnie. Saturday morning after a gigantic breakfast we were fueled and ready to get going on the party. We headed to The Party Store to grab the balloons and then to The Italian American Club to decorate.
We compiled a ton of old and new pictures of Bonnie and created giant poster collages.
Just about the cutest cousins ever!
Smiley Girl
SURPRISE! She had no idea thank goodness!
Luke was so cute. He couldn't understand why Grandma was crying and that they were happy tears!
Bonnie babysat Andrew Charney from birth until he was 5 years old. Many years ago he and his family moved back to PA and he graduates high school in a couple of weeks. I think this was her best surprise of them all!

The Charlton Trio; I have this entire song that they sang on video and I tried for hours to upload it to face book, but it won't because it is so long. I will try and upload it to this blog later.
8 years and counting...
Sheryl & Jess
Thank you to everyone who helped make this such a fun filled night! I'm not sure if Shari reads this blog like Aunt Dee Dee, but please thank Marc again. He did such a wonderful job and we really appreciate it!
From all of us...Big Ro, Brad, Krista, Lexy, Luke, Ro, Me, Seth, Leah, Sheryl & Jess...
HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY!
