The Time We Fit Inside a Refrigerator Box

In honor of my mom's 60th birthday, all my brothers (and two sisters-in-law) flew into town to surprise her.  Now...in my family we can't do anything normal, like show up at her door and say "Surprise!".  That would be silly.  Instead, Brad hunted down a refrigerator box that everyone could fit inside...so we could present her with the biggest (literally) gift ever.  


We set up on the back driveway, and I went in and led my mom outside.  She was so confused and didn't want to go out in the rain to open her gift...


Thankfully Brad had rigged it so they could push it over and - voila!  Out they came!



What a blessing it was for all of us to spend her 60th birthday weekend with her.  We love you, Mumsie!

  1. SO GREAT that y'all did this, and that your mom had a special (and kind of crazy) birthday surprise!! Three cheers for all of you for thinking/pulling off such a scheme, and three cheers for Cathy for being such a great mom!!
