I Pulled It Off!

I wanted to throw Chris a surprise party for his 25th birthday last year. Because we were in Florida, it didn't quite work out - so I decided to do it this year. And miraculously, it stayed a surprise! A ton of people came, and I think it turned out well. Thanks to everyone was able to be there, and I'm sorry about the UFC fight that I ordered but didn't work!

Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to take many pictures. 
Thanks to Heather and Paige, I have a few.

Chris's good friend Bryant made a special BYU cake just for Chris.

Singing "Happy Birthday"

Blowing out the candles...

Because Bryant is a huge Utes fan, he decided to 
have a little fun with the cake. Not only was the inside 
red, but it was also seasoned with cayenne pepper....

We played a game where everyone had to write down a memory of 
Chris. I read the memories, and he had to guess who wrote them. 
We got some pretty wild stuff - especially from his family who had 
more than their fair share of memories from his childhood 
that were to funny not to share.

We finished off the night with some karaoke. 
Chris and Lorin got down to serious business....

Thanks again for those who were able to come! We had fun!

It had to have killed you not to have more photos- sorry my camera died or I would have gotten more for you!
You did a good job though and he seemed to enjoy himself :)

Bryant will be so glad that his cakes made it on your blog! It was a fun party and we were so glad to be a part of it! Way to go Heidi. I wish you were my wife.... LOL.

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! Sorry again that Karson and I weren't able to make it. It was such a crazy busy day with photo shoots that it made it near impossible to get there before the party ended.
