Do you recoginize these two?!
Neither did we! We flew into the airport in Minneapolis at midnight - tired and only expecting my parents to pick us up. That's Steve and Val (Brian's parents). They came in that disguise and wandered around us while we waited for bags, got on the elevetor with us and followed us to the parking lot. We NEVER noticed them! It wasn't until my dad informed us that he brought the wrong car so we couldn't all fit (at which point my irritation really blinded me from the people around me!), that they revealed themselves! Brian and I were shocked - the boys just weren't sure what to be! What a great surprise! It got even better - Pete was waiting to see us the next day. So much fun!!! Thanks for helping us have such a great trip!

Oh how I have anticipated seeing this post! Thanks so much! It makes me laugh for so many reasons...the way that Mom pulled her socks up all the way as part of her costume, Dad looking like some guy bumming around his retirement fly fishing, the mental image of you when your Dad pulled up in his tiny red car...Charlie likes to speculate on your inner monologue at that point too =) It's all just so fun! I couldn't understand how you didn't spot Dad instantly *he's hard to miss*- but after seeing the photo of them I'm wondering how Brian could possibly miss Mom? It's a good thing you were traveling with children and so late at night, otherwise they probably couldn't have pulled it off.
i can see where Brian gets his good looks.
It sure was fun being with you all...the boys reading maps in the back seat, Peterstown, Noah's mirror friend, the animal game as well as Como Zoo with your folks and the birthday party. It ended all too soon! Babi
