Amanda's 15th Surprise

Just like my Grandma Vickers, when it comes to birthdays or Christmas I can hardly keep a secret. I suffered terrible anxiety by not breathing a peep about Amanda's upcoming birthday. Although we usually spend weeks planning a party, she didn’t speak a word about it either -- she knows vacation at Lake Powell is celebration in itself. So, I secretly packed up the Happy Birthday banners, balloons, party hats, noise makers, candles, and treat bags. The only trouble is that I couldn't figure out how to sneak a birthday cake on the houseboat and keep it hidden for three days. So, we made-do.
