Birthday...SURPRISE!

For the boys' birthdays this year, we pulled off the surprise of all surprises...a joint birthday party! We opted not to make a big deal about their parties because we decided to plan a "surprise" party.  We secretly invited a a few of the boys' friends to show up at the house.  Thompson was probably the most surprised since his birthday was three weeks away.  The kids had a great time playing together, indulging in cake, and then watching Thompson and William discover they would be leaving the next day for a week-long trip to NYC for Thanksgiving.
