This week I am in Corpus Christi, Texas to help my sister celebrate her 60th birthday. My niece planned the party; my job was just to show up. I flew from Ottawa to Chicago to Houston to Corpus Christi, landing a mere 45 minutes before the surprise party started Saturday afternoon. My sister’s birthday is not until Wednesday, January 13th, but we decided to make it a birthday week…
Flying into Corpus Christi, I could easily see why it is dubbed “the sparkling city by the sea”…
Arriving at the restaurant where the party was held just 10 minutes before the guest of honour, my brother and I took our positions behind the bar pretending to be bartenders. Our sister arrived, was greeted by her friends and family who guided her to the bar for a margarita. The expression on her face when she realized the bartenders were her brother and sister visiting from Canada was priceless…
The surprise party was a huge success, just the beginning of a wonderful week spent with my sister I haven’t seen in several years. Stay tuned for more pictures as the birthday week goes on….
Ah,this is lovely. Have an amazing time enjoying the birthday week.
How great for the two of you to get together. God bless.
Have a great time, & make sure to fill up on the local cusine!
