Best surprise ever

We had planned to surprise my parents with a visit from all of us (me and my twin brothers) with all of us just showing up on their doorstep at the same time this past Friday. This was to be an early surprise for their 60th wedding anniversary since they were going to be on a cruise for the actual day. But then Momma got sick and went into the hospital for a few days. So change of plans. K1 went early with his son and arrived on Wednesday, K2 and S arrived on Friday and surprised them. Then I arrived on Friday afternoon late and surprised them again. Momma said it was better this way because if we had all arrived together she would have cried. This way she was just really, really happy. We all went out to dinner on Friday night. Really cool. The amazing thing is that no one blew the surprise even though half of America knew we were doing it. Maybe a hundred people knew about the secret and yet no one let it slip. It was great fun. But the twins had such a good time telling "Dad" stories at the restaurant that he finally asked, "Is this a roast?" A good time was had by all.
