Jukebox Surprise!!!

After work tonight, I was still feeling pretty depressed and overwhelmed. Bart came in while I was working on the computer, and asked me if I wanted to go for a drive. I was like OK...

So, I thought maybe we were going to run to his office or run an errand. Well, we just went driving, and driving......about 10 minutes into the drive I looked over at him and asked - "What are you doing?" "Where are we going?"

Bart can't lie to save his life! He said we are going for a drive - with a laugh. We basically went in a huge circle for like 20 minutes. I knew he was up to something, but I didn't know what.

When we got home, the house was locked, and we couldn't get in. There was someone in the house, so we knocked. Sky peeks her head through the curtain and says "We will be with you in a moment." I was like What?! Then she giggles, and closes the curtain. Anyway, we had to wait outside for another few more minutes.

When they finally opened the door, this is what I saw...my Jukebox - it was in the living room playing my favorite 45 record!

 
*Brandon & Bart got to talking while they were out of town working last year about what to do with my old jukebox that I have had for years - that didn't work. Brandon said that Sky's family member worked on old Jukeboxes. So, (this will tell you how observant I am), Brandon took my jukebox from up at the shop and took it to Sky's uncle Val. Val said he didn't have time to work on it himself, but would show Brandon how to fix stuff on it. So for the last few months Brandon has been working on getting it running again.*

Tonight when I walked in, it was running and playing actual 45 records! It was wonderful (made me cry!). So, Brandon, Sky & Bryce had to unload this heavy sucker and get it situated while Bart took me for "a Drive".

My kids are awesome!
