My mom has the unfortunate pleasure of being born on Christmas day. This means that most years, her birthday takes a backseat to celebrations of our Savior's birth. So, this year, I decided that since she was turning 55, I wanted to do something special. So, I came up with a plan to surprise my mom with a Branson girls' night with her and all of her daughters! We decided we would take her to a nice hotel in Branson, Missouri, so we could go shopping at the outlet malls and just hang out and have some girl time. My mom only knew that she and I would be hanging out on a Friday night. She didn't know we were staying at a hotel or anything.
The nice daughter that I am, I made my mom drive all the way to Branson with me with her eyes closed! It's about a 45 minute drive, so I think she may have been a little carsick by the time we got there, but she was a good sport. I had previously sneaked into her house and stolen some clothes and things so she would have what she needed for our overnight date. She quickly noticed that things were missing from her closet, but she just assumed that I didn't trust her to wear the right clothes on our date! Anyway, we got to the hotel and I went inside to get a room key. Then I took her up to our room, but my key wouldn't work! Luckily, my sisters were waiting inside and we knocked on the door and they surprised us. It was so fun to surprise my mom and pamper her!
We played some games and then put our bathing suits on and went down 4 flights of stairs and outside in the frigid air and over to the indoor hot tub.

We had fun in the hot tub, but then we had to make the journey back to our hotel room. Some of us thought the trek up four flights of stairs was worse than others did.
