Thanksgiving Surprise!

We had such a FUN surprise for Thanksgiving! My niece Kelsey went to College in Virginia and Cody and I knew they weren't planning to fly her home for Thanksgiving. We got a hair brained idea to surprise everyone and bring her home with Cody's sky miles! Cody must love me a lot because he's pretty protective of his sky miles. Originally he planned to surprise even me but eventually he told me and a few other people got in on the surprise along the way. My dad picked Kelsey up from the airport. Everyone had already arrived at Rhonda's house for dinner. We had to eat pretty late since she flew in that morning.

When my dad arrived at dinner Cody ran out and gave his ipad to Kelsey and she skyped us, supposedly from Virginia. Above is a picture of Cody getting Justin to set up skype on his laptop in preparation for the big surprise. Justin went along having NO IDEA why we were setting up Skype. He even added Kelsey so she could Skype.

Above a group of my family watching Kelsey on the computer. This is right before the big moment when Kelsey turned the camera around and showed us all where she would be eating Thanksgiving dinner! Below, Kelsey outside the house...YAY!!

And after she turned the camera around it took very little time for a crowd to rush the door to find Kelsey outside. They caught on right away! It went so perfectly! As soon as they saw the house on the computer, everyone looked out the window, ran for the door, and SCREAMED!! Below Tammy and Quinn (Kelsey's brother) reacting to the surprise!
