Well Folks, I managed to pull if off. :) (For those of you who know me, it is not easy to keep a secret this big from A, for this long!) As many of you already know (because we saw you) I was able to get A all the way to the airport and through security before he guessed where we were going. :) So, here is the story...
This past weekend A & I flew to VA to spend a very special weekend with friends from our VA life, in celebration of A's 24th year upon this earth. :) It all began with our tradition of going to the Melting Pot for A's Birthday. This year was our third time. He thought we were going to the Melting Pot in Charlotte on Friday and instead we flew out of Charlotte and were able to meet two great friends at the Melting Pot in Reston, VA... re-living out great time last year. Thanks to the work of many friends, we also had a champagne brunch with some of our closest friends on Saturday morning and then a huge open house Saturday night. Topped off by worshiping at our VA church and lunch with friends Nathan & Sarah that afternoon, we headed back home Sunday night exhausted but very happy. It won't be soon forgotten.
