The Best Birthday Surprise Ever . . .

My wonderful husband met Ainsley and I for lunch at McDonald's on the way to a meeting (supposedly) handed me a birthday card (over a month early) and an envelope that had information on attending an Oprah show. At that moment of shock, disbelief, confusion and a whole lot of shaking he explained that my mom and sister were in a car driving to Iowa and would be at our house in a couple of hours and my friend Beth was packing her bags to get on a plane for Chicago so we could all go see the show the next morning. He had made all of the arrangements- dads, grandpas, and husbands were taking off work to watch the kids so the girls could experience something we'd only dreamed of. Better yet, when we arrived at Harpo Studios the next morning and walked through the opening of her set to our seat, we were placed on the second right behind her and Dr. Oz. It was an experience we will never forget and so fascinating just to be on a TV set. We hit Michigan Ave in the afternoon and shared some great meals and amazing memories.
