Surprise for Tommy T!!!

Brad made a promise a couple years back to his best friend's wife.  She had asked if we could make it out for Tommy's 40th birthday.  They live in Indiana.  Brad had not seen Tommy since he and his wife got married in 2010. 

 

We coordinated with his wife, Jessica.  She knew the details of us coming in and was planning a large surprise party for Tommy too. 

 

We flew into Indianapolis, rented a car and drove 1 1/2 hours to their house.  We got there and had to wait about an hour for Tommy to get home from work. We started working on our plan of surprise. 

 

Here's how it went down.  Brad sat on the couch and used a coin collection holder to hide his face.  Tommy came in from the back door.  I waited outside to video the whole reaction...

 

 

 

The boys did several rides on the 4-wheelers (quads as Tommy would say).

 Tommy was showing me some ammo he keeps stock piled.

They went out for a ride like this...

 

 

And came back like this....

 

 

 There was some story told about Brad getting stuck in the mud up to his chest and some younger (teenagers I think) watching the whole thing.

 Brad, Tommy and Mike.  They spent many hours out working on a couple cars.

 Tommy and Jessica's adorable house out where the corn fields grow.

 

Tommy, Jessica, Chai and Crew- we love you all and miss you already!!! We cannot wait for another reunion after that next little one arrives. Happy 40th T!
