Surprise #1
Dad takes Mom to Outback to meet "a few" of the kids for dinner after Collin's fishing tournament....SURPRISE...all the "in town" kids are there...and SURPRISE again when Shelly walks in with my little Eleanor...Mom about died....she had no clue that I had been flown in for the event... there were tears and everything at my mother's sheer JOY to have me there....(my mother loves me what can i say) Sam (kara's husband) said after the outpouring of tears and hugs and kisses...."Now i know what to get mom for Christmas, Birthday, Mother's Day....LEAH...holy cow you couldn't buy that reaction!"

Surprise #2
The next night my mother "the Gamer" has all her girls playing split to her hearts content...it's rounding the clock at midnight and she exclaims that she is so happy that we are treating her to a night devoted to Split, Cataan and all of her favorite games....little does she know that her sly husband has sneaked off to the airport to retrieve her next surprise...Jacob...her only other out of state child...and this surprise out shone my own surprise arrival...Mom was quick to assure me that it was equal in joy...she was just COMPLETELY happy to know that all of her children were there for her birthday!
April 21st: THE BIG DAY!
Surprise #3
This surprise was the big Daddy...We are having part of our reunion at the Church Ranch out in Florida and for 2 nights the WHOLE family is camping...so they ploy was that we (Mom Dad, Jacob Eleanor and I) were going to go and check out the campsites that dad had pre-arranged to have opened for us to tour. Little did the lady of the day know that all of her kids had set up a big bonfire party for the big Day...we drove up and my mom was initially irked that there were people in the campsite...but quickly noticed that they weren't just some vagrants or vagabonds but all of her darling happy family!
SHE WAS SO HAPPY AND SURPRISED...good thing she had a good heart!
Mom...WE LOVE YOU...you are the BEST!
Thanks for all you have done for me and my family!
Dad you are pretty dang remarkable too....WE LOVE YOU!
