Surprises make ya jump for joy!!!

Hello fellow roadtrippers...just got back from boston and i wanted to share with you the deliciousness of something my poppi and i love to do--that is surprise our children...it is one of the most delicious things to do--because you have all that fun planning the surprise, you have all that lovely anticipation of the surprise going off as expected-and then you have this HUGE wellspring of happy energy to bask in when the surprise comes off--and then finally the love and gratitude of the person(s) you are surprising...

So...We went to a lovely birthday luncheon for my mother in law--who absolutely LOVED that surprise--(as you can see, the children were focused on surprises already--as they were excited to be a part of their granny's surprise...) but they thought we were driving home that same night--

my poppi and i had other plans--we secured a hotel room in boston and tickets to a red sox game--something the kids love--we have surprised them twice before with tickets, one time being a double surprise where they THOUGHT they were surprising their dad with something, only to find out he was IN on the trick and surprised them with something totally different...but as i said, we had surprised them twice before along the same lines and you would think they would get smart to it and call us on it...

but they dont--and i think thats because they are in alignment with and LOVE and attract these surprises and they want to be AS surprised as we want them to be...

so, it was funny because we DONT go through boston to get home from this trip--but this time we obviously had to, and they didnt notice the situation until we were almost to the exit for fenway park...they had been watching a movie--they questioned the situation then, and poppi said he had taken a wrong turn and could get on the mass pike from local roads--as we passed fenway, with all the crowds of people decked out in red sox garb happily walking to the game, the kids begged, "can we go to the game please!!!" and we said--no, we dont have tickets (you CANT get tickets day of game without knowing the tricks and waiting on line for 4 hours...so, they knew we couldnt go)...they even said--"we are being punished for something!" and literally had tears in their eyes as we passed by the park...

now, with that emotion coming up--we were tempted to tell them then...but decided no--lets play it all the way out--and continued to talk about finding the entrance to the highway--and how we could get tickets another time, but really needed to be HOME tonight...we then turned into the hilton and unwound the window as the bell captain asked us if we were checking in...pete smiled and said yes--and i turned to the girls and said--SURPRISE!!!

they held it in all the way to the room--but as the bellboy closed the door, they let out a huge WHOOOOOOOOOOP and grabbed us both and jumped up and down literally for JOY...and the energy felt so amazing!!!

needless to say, we had a wonderful time--they won the game and everyone was happy as a clam...and so, you see on our life roadtrip we attract adventure, abundance, love, harmony, health and as many surprises as we can get! :)

and it WICKED ROCKS!
