Alexis's 30th birthday was last Saturday, my mom called me a couple of days before and we decided I would come as a birthday surprise for Alexis. Papa also had no idea I would be there, so we got to surprise him too! It was awesome, we got them both! It was so much fun.
Lilli got a great video of the moment, I was a flower delivery girl. At first she had no idea but as soon as she opened the door I think she saw it was me.
We celebrated her birthday with breakfast and mimosas!
It was perfect timing for my visit because Alexis just bought a beautiful house so she needed her designer sister there to help her make decisions decorating. We spent all day Saturday at antique shops and bought some great pieces!
What a beautiful house! She really got to take advantage of the great prices on homes right now in Kansas City, it is in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the city! Lilli will be moving in with her in a few weeks.
The cozy living room
The backyard is awesome!
Papa's surprise! He REALLY had no idea who I was, I think it took him awhile until it really sunk in that it was me. I was "Julie", you'll hear him say, "nice to meet ya Julie". And then he probably wondered why this Julie girl was trying to give him a hug! :)
This is what I looked like when he walked in
Ha, Ha--got them! :)

Clea - Great pictures! What a fun visit! It's such a treat to see Alexis has a BEAUTIFUL new house. I'm so glad you were all able to celebrate and sounds like you had a blast with the shopping and the dinner looks yummy. I love you guys and so enjoy keeping updated through your blog. Keep posting and I'll keep checking in.
Love You! Kelly
That is AWESOME!! I am so jealous. I wish I could just hop on a plane and surprise someone, but I'm a bit too far away. What a wonderful present for Alexis (and ummm....beautiful new house!) Keep on blogging....love seeing what's going on in your life.
Love ya!
I was laughing out loud at those videos...such a fun idea. I LOVE the way Shelly ducked in front of Tom laughing hysterically, but trying to keep it in after he said, "nice to meet ya Julie"....CLASSIC. Thanks for the laughs ladies, La.
