Today I spoke in church. Right before sacrament meeting started I got this text


I just didn't even know how to respond ha! Like it was a major decision. Is it worth it? Which ones should I choose? Where should I throw them in? 

Oh, and he wasn't even there yet. But he claimed to have people listening.

I still hadn't decided for sure if I was going to do it as I got up to speak. 

The thing about this talk is that I was already taking a huge risk because I was being very REAL. I was admitting to weakness all in the hopes of touching someone's heart and saying what the spirit prompted me to.

So I didn't really want to ruin the spirit but I found some places in my talk to easily slide it in. I chose Oreos and the Wild Wild West haha! But I didn't dare look at all those people I knew were involved in this practical joke because I most definitely would have lost composure. 

Mitch walked in right as I was getting all emotional and thought there was no way I was going to do it. 

I found out later that I was the first person to ever do it! And the girl that spoke right after me did it as well. 

The biggest compliment was that they all said I hid it so well. Like no one else would've known that it wasn't part of my talk. NAILED IT. 

Here we are with our prizes. He told us to flaunt them 

YSA wards are FUN. Ya never know what you're gonna get. Creative people, I tell ya.
