My birthday hadn’t even arrived yet when I received an amazing present. Venetia had told me to show up at La Parolaccia, one of our favourite restaurants, and not to ask questions because it was a surprise. Well, that was the understatement of the year!
I walked into the restaurant and there, with Venetia, was my friend Susan from Canada! I had no idea she was coming, but apparently she made her decision back in January, and she and Venetia have been in cahoots ever since then! Venetia never let anything slip in all that time—amazing!
Here’s how it all went down.
Thank you for coming to share my special birthday, Susan, and thank you Venetia for helping make it happen. And for capturing the moment perfectly on video!
What an amazing gift and surprise! So generous of Susan and Venetia to have planned this – and the emotion is palpable!! Let the fete continue!!!!
Yes, I don’t know how they pulled it off but it was a fantastic surprise!
OMG what a surprise!!🎂🥂. You both look great. It looks like your friends and Argentine family pulled out all the stops for you.
Yes, it was definitely a birthday to remember thanks to my lovey friends!
WOW! That was a wonderful surprise! Nothing beats being there in person does it? ENJOY!
That’s true – it was great to have Susan here to share my party!
I am so happy that it all went so well – it was fun planning it with Susan and then actually watching it happen!
I can’t believe you both kept it a secret since Susan made her decision in January!
Helen you look wonderful and happy!!!
I’m so thrilled that your friends planned and executed such a great Surprise
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 💓
Thanks Ruthie!
