Surprise!!!!

So I had the scheme all planned out exept the actual surprise. I had made up flight schedules for Alexi and Justine and emailed them to Sarah, so she wouldn't suspect anything.

We first surprised the kids at their house.

The shocked look on their faces: So entertaining

Then the big one; surprising Sarah and Chris.

We decided with Sophie and Ben to pretend Sophie had hit a dog (Chloe)
on their way to meet them at Aldi.

While we (justine, Mike and I) hid behind the store wall and in our car,
Sophie called her parents in a panic to make them come out to the parking lot.
They did and got the surprise of their life.
Our friend's JOY on this Christmas eve: Priceless


Sarah's thoughts as it all enfolded:
Oh... no, we'll fix the dog. it looks like Chloe. Chris won't mind keeping it.
As she sees Justine:
Oh she came a day early? She brought Chloe with her?
Then she sees Mike and I and it dawns on her that we are all there!!!
