Mom is 40

For Mom's 40th birthday, after sleeping in (until grandma called) she went running at the Pavilion and then off to the mall by herself for some shopping.  The boys and Dad met her at the food court for lunch.  Then they went to the candy store to get some Bazooka gum, so Dad could demonstrate some bubbles, like in the legendary story of the bubble contest.

When Mom got home, she was in for a birthday surprise.  First, she got $5.  Sam gave her the option to trade in the $5 for door #1.  She selected the door.  Then Sam nicreased his offer to $10.  But Mom still took the door.  Her prize behind Sam's closet door was 9 hugs (3 Pete, 3 Sam, 3 Dad).  But then Pete offered her to trade in the hugs for what was behind door #2 (Pete's closet).  She decided to keep her hugs, which was a good decision because this is what was behind door #2:


ZONK!!

(And if you look closely, you can see the Bazooka gum.)
