Surprise!!!

So this weekend mom was speaking in Stake Conference and I really wanted to surprise her and be there for her talk. Because I am so sneaky, IT WORKED!!!! Thanks to Josh and Melissa, they kept quiet the entire week for me and then came to pick me up from the airport Saturday late afternoon. Right after they picked me up we went to the institute, where mom would soon be speaking. I quickly changed into my dress clothes and then we waited for mom and dad to arrive. I was waiting in the opposite side of the chapel in the waiting area when finally I could hear mom talking to Melissa. I knew that was my cue to surprise her. I nonchalantly wandered into the chapel where mom was talking to mel and josh. She looked up quickly at me and then back at Melissa. Then she suddenly realized I was standing there! She burst into tears!! YES!!!!!!!! My plan worked :) I was so excited because mom and dad had absolutely no idea I was going to be there. Earlier in the week I had talked to dad about coming home, but told him I was just going to wait until Thanksgiving!!! (I'm so sneaky)

I'm so glad I got to go home and listen to mom speak. For everyone's information, she did a fantastic job, and I'm not just saying that. She really did do a great job and constantly had people coming up to her afterwards to tell her what an amazing job she did! Way to go mom!!!
