Surprise!!

Mikayla turned 30 today.  Thirty!  Some weeks ago, she was sad that she was going to have a signficant birthday and not be able to celebrate in a significant way.  Her sister-in-law Jill called me and suggested we surprise her with an overnighter somewhere close by, and we planned with Guy to take her away to Midway.  Jill reserved a room at the Zermatt, I made delicious food, including a cake, to take along, and Megan, another sister-in-law, brought stuff to do facials. 

Mikayla was totally and completely surprised when we arrived to pick her up.  She had no idea.  She packed a little bag, and away we went--Mikayla, her three sisters-in-law Jill, Karen, and Megan, her friend Lindsey, and me.  We had dinner--teriyaki chicken, mac-n-cheese, salad, garlic bread, and cake with whipped cream--played games, did facials and nails, and watched a movie until the wee hours of the morning.  We talked and talked and laughed and laughed, and generally speaking, celebrated Mikayla. 

In the morning, we drove down the canyon and met others at Magleby's Fresh for breakfast.  Mikayla and I went for pedicures later, enjoying a bit of pampering.  Happy birthday to my dearest seester!
