The Arrival

Page Two

Well the BIG EVENT finally happened!! Marlene arrived at the surprise Party that had been in the plans for over a month. Thanks to daughter Valerie and her girls Abbie and Kattie. They had been driving Marlene around Lemon for over a hour under the ruse of Marlene showing Valerie's girls where Valerie grew up!! She was assisted by daughter Natalie with calls from the Church that all was clear!!
