It has been about 6 or 8 years since we had a surprise party for daddy so this year we pulled the old trick out of the bag. What fun!! We invited a few close friends and family to be here at 12:00 lunch. Daddy wasn't expected back until around 12:30 from buying groceries. He usually doesn't go by himself but he had a feeling Sarah might be making him a cake or something. Of course, he had no idea about all of this. Our friend Steve Skinner did all of the grilling...thanks again Steve...and we also had a couple of friends "watching out" for him. He was surprised and truly enjoyed the fellowship we had. His gift from me and the kids was the air compressor you see in the picture...that too was a huge surprise. Yes, I bought that thing, unloaded it at home, got it up 6 steps and hid it in Sarah's closet! Anyway, we played horseshoes (one of his favorite things to do) and a game similar to tether ball. Lots of fun. Thanks everyone for coming!!!
