Almost two months ago (oops) we celebrated my mom's 60th birthday! She went on vacation with my sister beforehand, so Ernie and I got together to discuss the master plan and taste a few awesome small plates at Felice, a local place we all really like. A few small plates wound up being about 10, with numerous glasses of wine. Surprise, surprise! My mom called during our secret mission, but we didn't reveal a thing.
The reason that we chose Felice was because they have a great third floor lounge that they were able to block off for us. Check out the decor in the pictures. It's so difficult to talk at a large sit down dinner, so we went with the apps/drinks idea. It was small- family and just a few friends.
She had NO IDEA. She called my brother and aunt from the car on the way to her own party to chat because she thought they were going to the restaurant to check out a plumbing job for Ernie. Little did she know that we were all together waiting to surprise her!
I think that the whole night was perfect. We were even able to talk to Bethanne from France on Skype during the party, so we were all with my mom on her special day!
