A surprise party on New Year's eve

I have been to plenty of parties - both young and old, but it was my first surprise party. The plan was made in a movie theatre where we met another group of friends. It was on new year's eve, so we were to have a double celebration. We had 3 days from planning to execution and it went like clockwork. The surprised birthday boy did not guess a thing which was a pure bonus. The party was at a neighbour's - conveniently for me and I only took the responsibility for the cooking and keeping the birthday boy occupied until the decorations got underway. and a phone call later we were off to their place and much fun was had. The kids were too excited and our attempts to put them to sleep simply did not work. Some lessons were learnt in the process with respect to kids' priorities. All in all a good start to the new year.
