I have said nothing about it all week. It was a big surprise. A secret not to be divulged. Mike and I left home at just after 6am this morning. First stop… Cape Town International Airport…
We flew into Johannesburg and were picked up by Julian. After stopping by his home and meeting up with Jess and Gerrie, we went out for a brunch. A quiet afternoon followed. At 4-45pm, we headed for an events venue about 25 minutes away.
The spit braai was underway…
And the table was set…
All we needed was the guest of honour and soon she arrived. My sister Anne turns 60 on 26th December and today was her surprise party!
Mike and I hid with some others who had come from afar and one by one we came out to say hello. I peeped out from behind a pole.
Suddenly she saw me…
We both cried…
It was a wonderful moment. Sisters for life!
#985 of my 1000 thanks is that we could be here today!
We fly home tomorrow…so just a whistle-stop trip. 😀
Luke 1:78-79
God’s tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us…. to guide us to the path of peace.
These are the days.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
