Our family shared some wonderful days last week. Micah got an unexpected spring break from school and came in from NOLA last Tuesday. She didn't have to return home until Sunday and we crammed everything we could into four days. I was able to take off from work on Thursday and Friday so that made it especially nice to get in some days to make the most of her visit. Thursday, we did some serious shopping at the mall and some other favorite stores. Thursday night was very special because it was the College of Agriculture Spring Awards Banquet and Micah was able to go along for a fabulous meal and watch her brother be recognized for several awards. Bryan was introduced for the scholarship he was presented last fall and also received a certificate for maintaining status on the Dean's List for the year. We're all very proud of him. We snapped a few photos after we got home.
Friday, we just chilled at home doing some of this and some of that. We had quite a bit of time for chatting and catching up. I had a wedding to shoot on Saturday, but when I got home, Micah, her dad, and I went into town for pizza and when we got back home, she and I watched two movies before bedtime. Bryan had gone away for the weekend as he had made previous plans.
All too soon, she was packed and headed home Sunday morning. It was a wond
erful visit. It is so nice that sometimes life hands you an unexpected pleasure in the midst of "hurry-scurry." Just when I needed a lift and a fresh renewing of spirit, she was allowed to come home. It had been a long time since Christmas. Isn't God good to present us with little surprises from time to time?
