Tell a memory about having company at your house, or of a family party.

My family had gone to church one Sunday evening in late August. Our Sacrament meetings were always held at 7 pm back then and so we would not get home until after 9 pm usually. Well on this particular Sunday when we arrived home it was dark and there was a car from Arizona in the driveway. We suddenly realized that Pauline’s family had brought her up for the school year and they were most likely waiting inside. When we went in we turned on the proch light and I went over to the front room where they had all fallen asleep on the couches and chairs while waiting for us. I woke up whom I thought was Pauline and gave her a hug only to then realize it was not Pauline but rather her sister. She looked so much like Pauline and apparently they were twins and I hadn’t known. It was a bit embarrassing for a short moment but then quickly saw Pauline and hugged her too.
