3 Day Weekend

My 3 day Martin Luther King weekend was absolutely wonderful!  May parents had made plans about two months ago to come to NC for the weekend for a little visit.  The trip was way to short, as usual, but I cherish any amount of time we get to spend together.  We picked them up from the airport Saturday morning at 11:00 and said goodbye Monday evening at 4:00.  Highlights of their visit included:

• Church together
• Getting a little tune up for my car - Oil change, new brake pads, wash, and vacuum
• Grocery shopping
• Delicious restaurants - Brigs, Los Tres Magueyes, Dairy Depot
  
• Games - Anomia and Wits & Wagers
• Mom teaching Robert how to do some mending with the sewing machine
• Replacing the tire on Robert's bike so Dad and I could go for a ride
• Giving Mom and Dad a tour inside several of the buildings at SEBTS.  The last tour we gave them was before Robert started school, and we only showed them the outside of the buildings.
• Hanging with the Vaughts - Dinner, dessert, games, and football on TV
• Catching up with family friends (The Morgans) at Chick Fil A
• Visiting Robert at work, getting to see the flower shop, and meeting his boss and co-workers

Saying goodbye to them never gets any easier.  We'll see them again in about 10 weeks for Easter.  So far away!

Robert started his new semester today.  He has kind of a packed school schedule Tuesday-Thursday in order to be off on Monday and Friday to work at the flower shop all day (plus Saturday).  He's taking Greek 2, Pastoral Ministries, Missions, and Evangelism this semester.  It'll be 12 hours just like last semester.  Wednesdays he'll have 3 classes, and on Thursdays he'll only have one class, so really only Tuesday and Wednesday are crazy.  Hopefully that will pay off in order to have slower days the rest of the week.

Robert finished his Greek class with flying colors!!!  He ended up with an A.  I guess it's all Greek to him?
