7 Adult Siblings Show up for a Surprise Sleepover with Parents and It's Bringing Folks to Tears
May 16, 2024
Seven siblings came home for a fun sleepover with their parents. And everyone had a wonderful time together!
Growing up, your siblings were probably always around, but you might not see one another as often as adults. And even if you do, you are rarely under the same roof, especially with a large family.

They Showed Up With Sleeping Bags and Chinese Food
But these seven siblings from Utah made it happen by surprising their parents with a fun night. Teresa, 57; Chad, 55; Chris, 52; Bobbi, 49; Danny, 45; Cody, 42; and Hiedi, 40, arrived at their parent's home with sleeping bags and Chinese food.
Christine Andrew, Cody's wife, came up with the idea after noticing that her in-laws, Luedeen and John, were having a hard time with goodbyes. "There was one time where Cody’s mom grabbed my arm and was like, ‘I would do anything to have them all here with me again,” Christine said.
This was when she came up with the sleepover idea. Although all the siblings also live in Utah in their own homes, there is something special about coming all together for one whole night.
All Together in One Place
No spouses or grandchildren were invited. The night was just for Luedeen, 80, and John, 81, and their seven children. Sadly, they had lost a daughter, Jodi, when she was just 16 months old.
Cody, a content creator, shared the footage on his Instagram account, and it's super sweet. The video went viral and now has almost 2 million likes.

The copy reads, "It has been over 30 years since we have all been under the same room. I don’t know how many more years my parents have but this was amazing. They had a new found energy through out the night staying up until 11.30pm."
The Family Had So Much Fun
The video shows that they all had a great time at the sleepover with their parents. "Pure Imagination" from the movie Wonka plays in the background as John and Luedeen light up with all their children under the same roof.
In the video, we can see the kids doing their mom's hair and then chilling in bed with her, laughing and having the best of times. The last scene is the living room with all the bedding set up for the sleepover.
“Cody tells me stories about how he and his brothers and sisters would sit on their mom’s bed and have popcorn and orange juice every night,” Christine said. “They wanted to recreate those moments of having a full house again.”
Luedeen and John tended to go to bed early but made it to 11:30 pm the night of the sleepover. "We were so close to getting Mom to toilet paper a neighbor’s house," Cody recalled. The family watched movies and even played Truth or Dare together.

As parents age, each moment together is so precious. The night was a big memory-maker for all of them, spending time together in such a special way.
It's heartwarming watching a family have such fun together. They have genuinely blessed their parents with this amazing sleepover.
