I absolutely love surprises. I love receiving them as much as I love giving them to others! So naturally, when I received a phone call from Bradley (Kimberly’s husband) about a birthday ambush, I said YES! And to Bradley’s credit…he had all of the details planned and simply needed my help in performing a few simple tasks, consisting of lots of trickery! But trickery is fun, especially when the “surprisee” (I just made up that word) is completely oblivious. When I say Kimberly had no clue…she had NO CLUE! Any who, Kimberly and I met at TJ Maxx on Monday, as I had told her it would be fun for us to shoot me shopping! Little did she know that we would be shopping for her! Although we scored lots of awesome goodies, here’s a look at one of her personal favs from our shopping/style sesh.
Kimberly needed a little extra arm candy, so I let her borrow mine! Don’t you love the Heirloom Finds’ “Live Your Life” bangle? Well, if so you can purchase it HERE. Also, I’ll be sharing about a special collaboration I’m doing with Heirloom Finds on Tuesday!
After an hour of shopping, we then drove to Athens, OH for a supposed “Girls Dinner Date”. However, we really went to meet Bradley so he could give her these sweet birthday sunnies, as well as shoot her for this week’s #GTLT. To say that Kimberly was surprised just may be the understatement of the century! She was STUNNED!
Because photo bombing is ridiculously fun.
Bradley and Kimberly. Aren’t they cutest thing? Also, you should know that I took this photo! I’m almost a professional photographer…woot woot. Watch out Kimberly 🙂
Overall I would say the Birthday Surprise was an epic success! After shooting, we made a celebratory pit stop by Chipotle to stuff our faces with Mexican and spicy hot sauce.
Happy Birthday Kimberly! I am sooooooooo thankful for you, our friendship and working relationship. Lord knows I would be pretty LOST without you. Here’s to 22 years of life and many, many, many more to come : ) And a big thank you to Bradley for coming up with such a creative birthday ambush that knocked Kimberly’s socks off! Yay!
