The Delivery!

Ok, I'm sure this delivery is going to pale considerably next to the one that will take place in just a couple short weeks, but it (an "it" made possible by you all) made for a very fun and special Saturday walk!

Many many thanks to Sara, who volunteered to coordinate the surprise with Chris, AND managed to get behind the camera so the rest of us could enjoy the moment as well! I'll have to let the wonderful pictures mostly speak for themselves since I wasn't there - thank you Sara!

I told you it would be shiny!


Here comes Carrie, ready to go for a walk and completely unaware BOB is coming along.


"Hey, what's going on?"


"Are you all in on this?"


This card has all your names and notes (and a drawing of a stroller by my 4-year-old).


I warned you we might make her cry...


Everyone got to take it for a test run.


I think they like it!


Thank you to everyone for participating and for keeping it a secret!! Carrie was surprised and shocked and happy and thankful and excited and feeling very blessed by all the love (as I'm sure she'll tell you).

Coming to a Carrie near you...

Hi Everyone! Thanks for being patient (and super secretive!) as we got the stroller purchased and made plans for surprising Carrie. Assuming NewBaby doesn't decide to get a jump-start on being born this weekend, Chris and Carrie should be in possession of their new BOB Saturday evening! So we only have to stay clammed up for another day or so. I, for one, am close to bursting with excitement!
