Jonathan's Surprise




Jonathan finally posted an album: TwenTee!

Jon at Bravo's It was a surprise dinner held at the Salud residence. [They hosted our entire trip!] Mike Gayatao planned it and grabbed a few close friends. Oddly enough, it was Jonathan's 5th surprise birthday party since he turned 15, and he STILL gets a shock every time. We had to tell small white lies this time, though. I took him and Jenny out to dinner at Bravo's that night (photo) to lure him away from the house. As you'll see in the video, it worked! Even the "surprisers" looked surpised when we finally arrived, hehe! It was a fun night, complete with an hour-long freak blackout. Thanks to everyone who came. Your friendship warms our hearts and keeps us close to home.

  10. Aww, how warm...

    Tita, your so funny. Your recording... then your voice is a little more pitched cause you're so happy for Jon also cause you know that the surprise was going to happen and you were happy to see Jon surprised. Then saying hi and accepting all the greetings and besos... while recording, while laughing and being happy for your son... the-mom-kinda-panic.
