Late last year I was asked to help plan a surprise party for my Sister-in-Law Amy.
You see she is a Leap Year baby.
As this year was a leap year my brother wanted to do something special on her actual birthday.
*Note* Surprise parties are much harder to plan than they seem -_-
It was hard to try and organise things without Amy getting suspicious. A major downfall was that her phone hasn't been working for ages and so she uses my brothers a fair bit too.
I have become good at sending texts that get me the info I need without giving away anything.
Unfortunately Amy did happen to answer the call about the hall booking and saw a text from my other brother in regards to a cake (his wife is awesome at cake decorating!).
I also learnt that working with a whole range of different people, Amy's family, Amy's friends, people I am friends with that are friend's with Amy, to get something together is REALLY hard!
All different sorts of personalities. But it was good for me to learn.
The end result was what was important and it seemed to be a success! :D
Amy enjoyed herself and got to see some people she hadn't in a long time.
Now for a little visual aid:

Haha I thought they looked familiar ;) Please also note the awesome LOTR timeline in the background of the second last photo, which took hours to plan, complete with hairy hobbit feet that Lisa made!! We're a great team eh hehe. There's no pictures of the amazing LOTR themed foot, but that was awesome too Lisa! Well done :D
