Exciting visitor!

Josh came home from church last week and told me that he had 'gotten me off the hook playing the organ for next week" and of course I wondered why. It turned out we were suppose to have a special visitor this week. No clue WHO.
So TODAY, we found out it was going to be....

Elder L. Tom Perry, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles!! This is a pretty big deal! Josh said I could't call extra people and tell them about visitor, so it was just like an average church day! Only Ashley's little RA breathing has gotten worse and she was definately sick this morning. So I found a sub for Primary and was seriously considering staying home for everything, but brave little Ash said, "Let's go." So we went off to just Sacrament Meeting (arriving JUST on time) and she sat on my lap the whole time. We came home right after church.
Elder Perry told a funny story about how his dad was a country attorney and one client who was a turkey farmer. Every Thanksgiving he and his brother and dad would get in the car and drive out to the farm and pick out the fattest turkey. THEN he and his brother would sit in the backseat WITH the turkey and drive home. They would unload the turkey and then the "excitement" of dad chopping off his head and plucking it.
Bugs and I were rolling our eyes at each other with gladness about NOT having turkeys (the animals) in the back seat of our cars! Also, I gave Ruth (the other organ player) a big squeeze for being the organist instead of me!
We came right now and Ashley just got up from her two hour nap (yah!) We are going to sit on the couch and chill.
Josh has ALL week off. We are planning some fun desserts for the Thanksgiving feast at the Mortensen's - I do LOVE making desserts!
And maybe Heather and Jason will come down and play on Friday afternoon. Yah family and yah thankful-week!
