... Tricked ...

Supposedly, according to my mother, Elder Neil L. Anderson was in the area and was giving a couple of firesides to different groups... She told me about the Young Single Adult one on Sunday and I even went through the effort of inviting some of my friends to come along for the ride (and by invite I mean I guilted them into coming by telling them that Apostles don't come all that often and that my mom was super excited to have them over for dinner before)... I seriously should consider going into interrogation or something like that because I have a way of making people do things that I want them to do (within reason)... so Jason, Emmy, Ben and I caravaned over to Tavares to have Sunday dinner with my folks... It was great... I haven't had that much fun with them in a while... Mom made a great dinner and dad really made everyone feel at home... We all laughed and ragged on each other and told stories--it was fantastic... what could make the evening even better? An Apostle! But wait?! I our dismay, we drove to the stake center and no apostle was there!!! Nope--my mom read the announcement wrong and it was for Single Adults, not Young Single Adults and apparently it was at a different building... So we all drove home, sad, tired, yet full from a good meal... Mom texted me as we drove home and told me that she made it all up just so she could trick me into having my friends and I come over for dinner... somehow that doesn't surprise me :)
