Surprise!.


#1 is Lisa, Justin, and Doug. They live about six miles from Bill and Vel. Lisa is their daughter. #2 is Chris, son of Bill & Vel. We went to see the new house of Doug & Lisa one evening and to meet their two dogs, Duke and Duchess. #3 is Duke. #4 is Duchess, Lisa, and Duke's head. The dogs are as opposite in size as is possible. Duke is a Great Dane, and as gentle and friendly and loving as can be! I forget what Duchess is but she is so tiny, it's just cute to see them together. They get along fine and even play together. We had a nice visit and about 9:00 I said we'd better be going. Little did we know that as soon as we left they jumped in their car and went to the air port to pick up Chris, Lisa's brother. He stayed with them. The next morning Lisa came over, we were visiting and she mentioned a strange man out wondering in the neighborhood. We didn't worry about it but then the door bell rang. Vel and Lisa went to the door and there was the strange man with his back to the door! Vel asked if she could help him with something. He slowly turned around and...it was Chris! Chris is the son that is a pastor in Alaska! He was in Calif. for a special service when he heard about my mom's heart attack so he changed his ticket and came to Colorado before going back home to Alaska. What a surprise! Scroll down to read what a wonderful special time we had with him. #5 is Justin and his drums. Once again, Lord, thank you for family! Thank You for pets. Thank you for wonderful surprises.
