<\/p>\n
I got home around 6:30 tonight after a super busy day. My folks were already at our house.. they’d driven up from Boston this afternoon. the house was also full of kids. Tonight was the surprise party that Morgan had put together for Matt and Hannah T.  The house was all decorated, the cars were hidden.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n

.. then around 7:30. Deb’ drove up to the house with the kids. We all ran up the fornt staircase and hid.. <\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

As they came in the front door we doused them with silly string and confetti. You could tell that they were completely surprised !<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The party was really nice.. I think there were about 30-40 kids.. I found out that today was also Brit’s 18th birthday.  (I was using gabe’s camera without a flash.. sorry for the blur !) <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

It was a beautiful sunset outside as the kids went out to the tramp.. and messed around the campfire<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We even had a pinata !<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

We do love fire here…<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Then folks came in for icecream and cake. The kids had made a double cake for the twins.. it had two photographs  of the guys made into the icing.. very cool<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Things started to quiet down around 11.. we started to clean.. but Hannah decided to lie down in the mess<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Dad and Mom enjoyed the chaos too. They fit right in !…<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

It is really nice having all the family together <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Dad and I fell asleep upstairs.. Mom caught this picture.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

While the kids played sketchy songs in Sam’s room..<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

A really nice night ! Sam.. I sure felt you here in spirit.. you belonged OK.. Gotta go work some now..  Love you all.. Love you Sam..
