A couple of hours later….
“Wow, this place looks great!” Mike said as he walked into the backyard.
“Thank you,” Sami said.
“Thanks,” Carrie added. “Did you get the balloons and flowers?’
“Yes, I did.”
“And what about my surprise?”
“Well, okay. Here!” Mike handed her a box. “Open it!”
Carrie opened the box and was shocked to see what was in it. “Three dizzy burgers and shakes! That’s so sweet!”
“Well, I thought you might like some lunch.”
“Thank you!” She reached over and hugged him.
“Excuse me,” Sami interrupted. “If I may ask, why are three Dizzy burgers so special?”
“Dizzy’s Diner is the last place Mike and I ate at before we left to Israel,” Carrie explained.
“Oh,” Sami replied.
“Well,” Mike added, “you two go in the kitchen and enjoy. I’ll be there in 5 minutes. I have to set up the balloons and flowers.”
“Okay,” Carrie said. Her and Sami walked into the kitchen. Mike set up the balloons and flowers, then walked in for lunch. The three of them sat down to eat. Then, there was a honk outside. They went to see who it was, and when they saw it was Alice, Maggie, and Mickey, they went outside.
“Hi!” Mickey said.
“Hi, Uncle Mickey,” Mike replied.
“Do you need some help?” Sami asked.
“Yes, that would be nice,” Maggie answered.
“This place looks great,” Alice said as she looked around.
“Thanks, Mrs. Horton,” Carrie replied. “Well, it’s getting late. We better start setting up the food.”
“Good idea Princess,” Mike said. “Uncle Mickey and I will fire up the grill and start cooking.” They walked into the kitchen while the women started setting up.

A few hours later, everyone started showing up.
Marlena and John walked up to Carrie and Mike.
“Hi sweetie,” Marlena said as she gave Carrie a hug.
“Hi Marlena,” Carrie replied. “Hi John!”
“Hey Carrie,” John said as he gave her a hug also. “I’m sorry I couldn’t meet you at the airport last night. But, congratulations!”
“Thanks,” Carrie said.
“Hey John. How’s it going?” Mike asked.
“Everything’s going great,” John replied. “How’s the dad to be?”
“Fine. I’m real anxious.”
“That’s normal. Listen, I’m going to get a beer, but I’ll talk to you later.”
“Okay. Bye!” Carrie and Mike both replied.
“See ya later honey,” Marlena added.
Eric and Greta walked up to them.
“Hi everyone,” Eric said.
“Hey brother,” Carrie said. “Hi Greta. How are you doing?”
“Fine thanks,” she replied. “Congratulations! Eric told me the good news.”
“As if you couldn’t tell!” Mike joked. Carrie leaned over and hit him playfully.
“Thanks,” Carrie said. “Eric also mentioned that you’re modeling now. And you two are going to the Bahamas next week.”
“Yes, we are,” Greta replied.
“It’s so beautiful,” Carrie continued. “Mike and I went for my birthday this year.”
“That’s great!” Greta added.
“Well, I’m going to get a drink,” Eric interrupted.
“I’ll go with you,” Mike added.
“I’ll join you too,” Greta said. “Bye Carrie.”
“See you later! I’m so glad Eric and Greta are together. They seem really happy,” she said to Marlena.
“They are,” Marlena replied as she glanced over Carrie’s shoulder. Lucas, Nicole, and Will walked over to them.
“Hi Carrie!” Lucas said as he gave her a big hug. “Wow! You look great! Sami said you and Mike were back in town, and the wonderful news. Congratulations!”
“Thanks Lucas,” she said. “Hey Nicole. How’s it going?”
“Fine Carrie. Congratulations.”
“Thanks. Hi will! How are you sweetie?”
“Fine,” Will whispered. “Hi grandma,” he said to Marlena.
“Hi honey,” Marlena replied as she picked him up. “I bet you would like some apple juice, wouldn’t you?”
“Yeah,” Will replied.
“Okay,” Marlena said. “Well, let’s go get you some. We’ll be right back!” she said as she left.
Mike was walking towards them. “Hey!” he said as he passed by. He walked up to Carrie and handed her a soda.”
“Thanks honey,” she said.
“Hey brother,” Mike said as he gave Lucas a hug. “How’s it going?”
“Fine bro,” he replied. “How about you? You’re married and expecting twins!”
“It’s great!” Mike answered. “Life couldn’t’ be better.”
“That’s wonderful,” Lucas mentioned. “There’s gran. If you’ll excuse us, Nicole and I are going to say hi to her.”
“Sure,” Mike said. “Talk to you later!” He looked over at Carrie and gently kissed her.
“Mmm, what was that for?”
“Just felt like doing it. Mickey just finished some hot dogs. Are you hungry?”
“A little bit.”
“Well, I’ll go and fix you a plate. Be right back!”
“Thanks sweetheart,” she said as Mike walked off. She turned around to put down her drink.
“Hi Carrie,” she heard a familiar voice say. She turned around and looked up.
