I had known for a weeks that my mom was going to come and stay with us for a couple of weeks in December. We decided it would be fun to surprise the kids though. So I packed them all up and headed to the Salt Lake Airport one night with no idea what I was going to tell them. Along the way I decided I was going to tell them that we were helping our friend Melinda pick up a friend at the airport that was coming to visit. My lie was terrible actually, I told them her name was Sherri and that the reason that Melinda couldn't pick up her friend up was because she forgot she had to be somewhere else. How lame of a lie, I was never good at lying. It was such a fun surprise to see Mema coming down the esclator at the airport. I think Cambree said something like, "What are you doing here?" She arrived just in time for Emery's birthday party and Maggie's puppies being born.
So just for the record it's hard to wait for puppies to be born, it's about the same as waiting for yourself to go into labor. It's was nice to have Mema here to help pass the time and keep us all occupied. We baked, made crafts, shopped a little, and made crazy faces! I was so glad she was here with us!
