I thought of the best birthday gift ever for my husband! When he was in the military, he was really close friends with this guy, Kenneth. He talks about Kenneth all the time, but they haven't seen eachother since 1998. I've never met Kenneth, but I was able to track him down. I bought him a plane ticket to California. He's going to fly out here on Friday and hide at my parents house. On Saturday, we are having our Halloween party. Mike thinks it is just a party for the kids, but it is also a surprise birthday party for him. Kenneth is going to show up in a mask. I am going to introduce him as my cousin. I'm going to let Kenneth and Mike hang out for a while until Mike figures out who he is. It's going to be priceless!!! :D

You must be a really wonderful wife! And you had better take pics because we are going to want to see them! I don't know how you're keeping it secret.

What a great gift!!! Film it and send it in to a video competition along with the story and you could be rich!! lol

Please let us know how it goes. Take pictures too so we can see his face when he figures it out.

That is such a cool idea! I imagine they will be sooo glad to see each other, once your husband picks himself off the ground!

I am so excited that I almost told him last night. :eek: It's pretty pathetic that my child has to remind me to keep my mouth shut! It is going to be so hard to keep this a secret all week!!!
