"Surprise!"

I hurry down the road to my house, squinting my eyes against the flecks of rain that threaten to burst into torrents over my head. Milla and Becca walk behined me, chatting about what we'd just heard in church. I trample the steps and lift the latch, the familiar chink rippling through the air. I round the corner of my house and - "SURPRISE!"

Balloons, friends, voices, smiles, picnic, food!! All of it comes at once, rolling into one unbelieving mash of noise and exhiliaration. My first reaction - AAAH!
I thought I'd put them in a grid to emphasise how delightfully overwhelming it was! (Click to enlarge)

Ever had any surprises?
