Samantha Harris 40th Birthday Shocker!

“SURPRISE! HAPPY 40th BIRTHDAY, SAMANTHA”

Samantha was truly shocked when her husband of nearly 10 years surprised her with a birthday fete, saying:

“Michael pulled off the greatest fake-out ever.  I thought we were going to dinner with friends but that I also had a drinks meeting with an endorsement prospect at Caufield’s beforehand.  Smart on his part, because that way I wore something more special and made sure my hair and make-up were better than the usual night out — getting ready with our girls under foot!  He REALLY got me!”

What also added to the shock value was her family who flew into town:

“Quickly realizing the party was for me, I scanned the room and noticed so many of my friends but most excitedly saw my mom, sister, step-dad and step-sister who had flown in from Minnesota.  The icing on the cake was that my sister Aimee, who doesn’t get to town often, got to stay with us for a few nights after the party for some rare quality girl time!”

Samantha didn’t realize just how long her hubby had been planning the soiree:

“When I threw him a 40th surprise party a few years ago, I think I started figuring it all out 2 months ahead.  Michael let me in on all the pre-planning details for this party on the car ride home.  He began it all back in April with a call to my mom and sister to determine what weekend would work best for them.  He is always so thoughtful and this party really exemplified that!  I feel like a lucky girl.”
