Memorial Day

This year my dad's birthday was during Memorial Weekend so we had a surprise party for him. He turned the big 5-0 so we wanted to make it a big deal. Tristan (my sister), Luke, and I towed up all of my dad's 4-wheelers to Coalville without him knowing and set up for the party. We even tried to cover the fact that the 4-wheelers were missing by putting tarps up where the 4-wheelers usually are. Apparently that didn't fool him; my mom told us that as soon as he got home from work he saw that they were missing and asked where they were. My mom's response was "what 4-wheelers?" She doesn't do well with surprises ha ha, but she did keep this one!
Well everyone arrived for the party 30 minutes before my dad was supposed to be there, and I think we got a good turn out. When my dad arrived he was blindfolded and had been since they left Salt Lake, since my dad drives Parley's everyday in the winter he knew exactly where he was at. I think he knew something was up, but he didn't know what.
When he arrived he was very surprised! I think he was so happy to see his close family and friends there to support him. Overall, it was a really nice party and I think we all had a good time.
My immediate family ended up camping at the church where we had the party and then we hung out and played games the next day. Luke's parents were also camping in Coalville so we went and hung out with them as well, and we camped with them on Sunday night. On Monday my family, and Scott and Megan went 4-wheeling in Coalville and had a blast. I only was able to take a couple pictures before my camera died (I will post later), but the views were amazing and the riding was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, the ATVs my dad Scott were on both broke down so we had to fix both before we could keep going. We never did get Scott's to work that day, but we were able to get my dad's running.
Sometimes I feel like these weekends go by too fast!
