Woman surprises her grandma by pretending to be a waitress at her favorite lunch spot

Shelby Hoefling traveled 900 miles to see the smile on her Nanny's face.

Surprise!

It’s safe to say that Shelby Hoefling and her 96-year-old grandmother Patricia are absolute besties.

The two regularly enjoy ice cream outings, play games and dance together. In fact, Shelby has an entire TikTok mostly dedicated to shenanigans with Patricia, whom she lovingly calls “Nanny.”

After time and distance pulled them apart, Shelby decided to give Nanny Patricia the surprise of a lifetime by traveling more than 900 miles to see her.

The catch—she wouldn’t tell grandma ahead of time, and instead pretend to be a waitress at her favorite lunch spot.

According to SWNS, Patricia spends half of the year in Boiling Springs, Pennsylvania, and the other in Fort Pierce, Florida. Shelby, still in Pennsylvania, hadn’t seen Patricia for six months.
