A Surprise Party for Candace

I was thrilled a bit ago to receive an invitation to a surprise birthday party for Candace's 40th birthday. Candace and I worked together for years at TELUS, delivered a major, long-term project, and were pregnant at the same time - she had Crosby around the same time I had the girls.

OK, so I completely forgot that it was supposed to be a 60s theme party, but nonetheless, I had a fantastic time. It was great to see a few former colleagues that I haven't seen in ages, and although I had to leave before Jennifer R. arrived, I did chat with her on the phone.

Candace and her husband Matt have a wonderful lakefront home, and their backyard housed a live band and bonfire for the evening of the party. It was a great event, and I think it will live long in Candace's memory.

Happy Birthday Candace!
