The Surprise of a Lifetime
Aaron and I managed to pull off the surprise of the century - he showed up last night and surprised Graeme and Sabrina! We had asked them if their friends from Ohio could stay at their house for the weekend, and told them they needed a ride home from the airport on Saturday night. So at 10pm yesterday, Graeme and I got into the car and drove to the airport.....only for him to find out that it was Aaron we were picking up, not Marty! He got the shock of his life, as did Sabrina when we got home. And Taylor's face this morning when she saw her daddy was priceless - she's been missing him so much! But of course, we couldn't tell her, either, 'cuz she'd tell everyone that her daddy was coming! :-) It's so great to have Aaron here - I missed him more than anyone! This weekend is also IHOP's 7 year anniversary of 24-7 prayer, and they're having a huge 3-day celebration with food, video clips of the old days, stories from the last 7 years, etc. It's so special for us both to be here, especially since we were both here in the early days and we lived the stories that are being told. This is fun!!
About Me
- Kristi Walsh
- Tauranga, New Zealand
- I'm a lover of Jesus, a wife, and a mom. That's what really matters. But I also get to do lots of other fun stuff, too, like help lead a leadership training program for young adults, lead worship, and occasionally preach and teach. In my spare time, I like to cook and bake, walk up 'The Mount', or curl up on the couch with a good book. I love what I do; there's not much about my life that I'd change if I could.

OK, now it makes sense. I couldn't figure out why you guys were going back so soon after moving here, but the 7th year anniversary is a darn good reason!! Have fun, but don't bring any cake home to NZ or you might get fined. :)
Actually, we found out about the celebration after Aaron booked Taylor's and my tickets. He just wanted us to be able to have a chance to come home 'cuz he knew how much I missed it! :-)
What a neat time for you guys. Sounds like you have a great hubby. I hope the rest of your stay is better than you could imagine. And safe travel returning home...to your other home.
