Jagjit's Surprise Birthday

Hey, the birthday songs for Jagjit are not over yet!
After all the planning that Teno had been doing for weeks wasn't for nothing....

Flashback!!!

At Sungai Besi gurdwara, after makan makan and chit chat session...Everyone had a worry look on their face. Jagjit was still with us and asking us "Where are we going next???" Well, as per Teno's plans, we all meet up at her place and surprise Jagjit, but we couldn't take Jagjit along with us!

We didn't know what to tell him! So everyone started saying let's go home la. Tired la. Poor Jagjit, he was planning to hang around with us longer but looks like everyone seems to be tired and plan to go home. He had no clue at all of Teno's plans.

Then he found out that Amreek and a few of the rest were going to Assuntha Hospital to donate blood. He also joined them. Phew! What a relief but another problem arised!
How was the rest who were going to the hospital going to adjourn off to his place without him knowing.

So all were a bit confused on what were we surposed to do and where we were surposed to go. With jagjit around we had to catch every little glipse of whisphering chance to plan it out. So there it was, plan made! Those not donating blood meet at sabha house, hang out there till further notice.

As we were leaving, I was terrified as Jagjit was just driving behind my car. We hoped, he didn't realize the route we were taking - which was to sabha house or don't he follow us all the way! Every turn I took, I would look behind to see if he is still there...Finally our paths parted and I was much more relaxed.

At sabha house, we were hanging out for quite a long long time....Of course what would we be doing there..PING PONG!!!

Again and again the phone will ring notifying about Jagjit's. The blood donation line very long! His turn next! He is on the BED already! HA HA! Jagjit still did not get a hint even though the rest told him to go ahead in the line before the rest.
Unfortunately I was not there to catch a glimpse of the situation there.

Once Jagjit was on the bed donating blood, we stated leaving to the planned meeting venue...JAGJIT's HOUSE!!!



So the waiting starts...TIC TOC TIC TOC....



Where's Jagjit!!! He is such a nice person, of course he will wait for the others once he has done donating. Why didn't we think of that!!!



While waiting, why not take more picture. I think at this point of time Ajit is really tired!



These three was extremely into the conversation. Satpal was going on and on about something! Thasy could not take his ears off but Ajeet managed to get his head turned for the picture.



Here Jivan was holding Ajit hand because he was trying to disturb the picture of her with Jey. Well I taught, might as well put him in the picture then.

Where is Jagjit? Everyone was getting impatient. There were still a few more to go in the line to donate blood. Without waiting any longer Teno taught up of a brilliant idea to get Jagjit back home as soon as possible. She asked her father to call him and demand him to get back ASAP. I think the reason was "I need you to go to the bank" Well mana la ada bank open on Sunday, but Jagjit didn't think of it at that time. Jagjit's mom was saying that Jagjit knows that there were some relative coming over, so he might have suspected a small family surprise birthday party.
But who knows what was in him mind?



THE MOMENT WE WERE WAITING.....SURPRISE!!!
And we started singing Happy Birthday again.
Jagjit just stood still trying to figure out what was hapenning.
He was in shock and speechless!
Ram had to stand right at that particular time when I was taking this shot ... luckily Jagjit's face was not blocked.



Jagjit, Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuu....!



Ok, a silent moment there, giving Jagjit to process the shock. He must be wondering...."Is this my house?...If it is what are all these people doing here?....Hmm....And they said they were tired and wanted to go home?....AND DAD WHICH BANK TO GO?"

He really looked LOST!



Since the waiting is over, finally charge on the food!!!



Opps, interuption in between the birthday...Introducing LOKI....
A DOG or GOD OF MISCHIEFS????
Should have seen what he did to his buddy male dog when he was set loose.



Ok, sorry about that, back to the birthday! Oh here we have the birthday boy....WITH A BIG SMILE...looking at his cake approaching!



What a lovely cake!



And for the final time this YEAR....we sang him his birthday song!



AHA, we did not forget banana. Teno had it all prepared - bananas and also another cake - "BANANA CAKE".



Here we have Teno busy cutting the cake for us!



I think all could not wait for the cake to come to them, so all went to Teno! Ha Ha Ha !



Last but the best, the main sole organizer of this event..TENO. I know I know we finished all the cake already!

That was one b’day celebration that - I swear – “On-The-Spot Strategies” with many minds working as one was something to be proud of!!! Great team effort ppl!! The paramount part of it all was how Jagjit was completely unaware with all the plotting of diversions going on around HIM – hehe… It sure rebels the old saying “Too many cooks spoil the broth” And definitely “Hats off” to Teno and family  Blessed be each day of our lives…
