Luckily, her daughter-in-law captured the whole thing on social media.
Reba’s son, Shelby Blackstock, and his wife Marissa had the perfect alibi for the grand surprise.
They even posted on Facebook that day that they were attending a baby shower in Chicago.
However, they were actually on the way to Connecticut to give Reba the surprise of a lifetime.
They even had special 70th birthday shirts to wear for the occasion.
Marisssa and Brandon were able to take in the show, just out of Mom’s line of sight.
Thank goodness for those bright stage lights, right?
After her show, Reba was greeted backstage by her tour mates and buddies with shouts of “Surprise!
When the song ends, she walks straight towards the camera to embrace her son.
We think it was a lie we can all let slide.
Happy 70th birthday, Reba!
