SURPRISE!!!!!

Hi Mom and Dad,

You probably thought we'd use the fact that you're out of town as an excuse to sissy out on our Valentine's Day tradition and take the year off. Pah! Not a chance. We started this and we're going to continue it, dang it. Even the middle of nowhere on your bike isn't far enough away to avoid us. So there. :)

To the right you will find several widgets which will play interviews of your children about our childhood memories and things we love about you. If our luck holds out, you will be able to play them on your smartphone. If not, email Annette immediately (or comment on this post) and she will do what she can to fix it.

We love you lots and lots!

Love,
Your Darling Children

P.S. Of course we had to throw in your grandkids' cute voices as well!

Some Background

I, Stephanie, was designated as the general interviewer, and it was so much fun!  Although we discussed the questions beforehand, we did not discuss what the answers might be, so we all had unique and personal responses.  You might notice Emily was present when I did my interview.  But aside from that, all the interviews were conducted in private, with only the interviewer and interviewee present.
All the interviews are about eight minutes long, except Emily's.  Hers is thirty minutes (and my favorite).
Of course, this was done around Christmas when we were all together (except for the grandkids).  I hope you have as much fun listening to these as I did!
