Show & Tell: "Surprise"

Tell: This summer my father-in-law threw a stellar surprise party for my mother-in-law, complete with family flying in from all over the country.  This was the look on her face when she saw her mom and sisters there from California.

    I am really enjoying the photography. But I have to add... That tricycle ROCKS! LOVE LOVE the basket and a seat you can lean back in! I'm a simple mind that is easily impressed.
