(OK, not that last one.  But wouldn’t THAT be fun?!!)

And the best part?

The kids have NO IDEA!

Do you know how hard it is to pack for a 13 year-old girl without her noticing and hoping you included all her “must-haves”?

See you next week!!!

****************************************************

Stop by Lorena’s blog and take a look at the sweet little bull calf their dairy cow birthed Wednesday morning.  Jedi Will and I mucked through the manure seconds after the birth in time to see him in all his steamy, newborn glory.  Bruce even put Will to work collecting eggs and feeding the llamas.  Thanks you guys! ! !  Our agricultural cup runneth over.

    What a fun surprise for the kids!

    Mucking through manure, steaming newborn calfs, collecting eggs . . . you’re definitely not in D-ville anymore.

  2. Oh my goodness! You guys are seriously the best parents ever. That is seriously SO cool. Can’t wait to hear all about it!!

    My parents surprised us with a trip to hawaii when I was in Jr. High.. best trip ever! Way to keep it a surprise!!!!

  5. Ha — How fun! We did that for our kiddos once. The oldest was in tears because he had made plans of his own. He pouted for the first 3 hours.

    Everyone else thought it was so cool. Now we always tell our oldest. I guess he doesn’t like surprises.
