Look at this face!! (Graduation Part 2)

Remember that I said there was a big surprise?  Well Pam and Jen (from our church) flew/drove all the way from Colorado on Friday before graduation.  None of the kids knew anything about it.  They called when they got close so we could get the camera ready and make sure that Meg opened the door.   I've never seen her so surprised and happy!  I think this is my new all-time fave. 

Big hugs from Jen.

And Pam!

Happy girls!

And just when she thought she'd never be more surprised than this, there was something else in the works.    You see just a few weeks ago, Rommel told me HE was coming too!  And all the way from Virginia.   I didn't expect him until Saturday... and maybe not until the actual graduation.   Turns out that he was driving all the way and would be here in just a couple of hours.  Oh bless him!

So about 10pm, he walks up to the front porch and Honey tells Meg to step out and look at the rain (wink wink!). 

Uncle Mel!!

Beautiful.

Lots of hugs again and a super happy girl!

And a happy reunion with Pam and Jen since they hadn't seen each other since Christmas!

This is funny...He comes in and walks down the hall towards the bathroom.  My boys are camped out in our bedroom when they see him coming towards them.  They sit up and say, "Rommelllll?????"

(Like, could it really be you and our house??) I totally understand as it all seemed a little too good to be true. 

So he sat and visited with them all for bit and made some little boys very happy.

Let the fun begin!!

We have the best friends ever.
