Surprise, Surprise!

Although President's Day weekend didn't quite go according to plan, it was still a weekend to remember! The original plan was to fly to Dallas Saturday morning to attend a friend's wedding and then fly out that night, but due to a flight cancellation Saturday morning I completely missed the wedding. The second part of my weekend still went off without a hitch though, and proved to be exciting for all involved!

Mom's birthday was February 22nd, so dad and I concocted a plan to take her by surprise! Had the Dallas part of my trip worked out, I would have flown out after the wedding and headed to Baton Rouge that evening but, since it didn't, I ended up in Baton Rouge a little earlier than expected on Saturday. Anyway, my aunt & uncle picked me up and brought me back to their house where my mom was lured over and quite shocked when she discovered me there too! Honestly, I thought I had blown my cover earlier in the day, but fortunately my mom is a very trusting person and believed my lies haha. 
Because it was President's Day weekend, I already had Monday off of work and decided to take an additional day to stay through Tuesday. Although I had a few extra days than normal, time still seemed to fly by, but we crammed in as much as we could! Hikes through a new park, crawfish, king cake, birthday celebrations, time with friends I haven't seen in far too long, and good times all around!
