On Saturday Evening we celebrated Father's Day a week early with my Dad. We were very excited to give him his gift. A couple months ago there was a Mattress store going out of business. They had a neon SEALY sign in the window, so Scott went in to inquire about purchasing it for my dad. Sure enough, a couple weeks later the store manager called to say that they would sell it to us. We were SO stoaked to give it to my dad. (In case you're wondering about the signifigance of the neon Sealy sign, my dad retired from nearly 20 years working for Sealy Mattress company in 2005, so the business name holds a particular interest for our family.)
So we blindfolded my dad, and escorted him into our spare bedroom where we then switched on the Sealy sign and instructed him to remove his blindfold. He didn't really have any words to say, but I could tell he thought it was really cool!


My Brother, Adam, gave him potatoes (for his potatoe gun of course), and twinkies... Dad's favorite.
