We had been looking forward to Sunday for a long time because Grandpa and Grandma Meyer were coming up from Indiana after attending Mom's Nursing School reunion to pay us a visit. And it is Dad's birthday! Party time!
We really appreciate that they took the time (5 hours) to extend their trip just a little bit further to this part of the North Country -- and we were quite thankful that the weather was very cooperative. It's almost warm! The winter this year was far too long for my taste.
It wasn't quite our normal Sunday, right from the start. Cheryl was still having trouble with her eye on Sunday, and since I'd already gone early in the morning to get ready for my Sunday School class, she opted to stay home rather than trying to drive with a wet towel over half her face.
Two of the kids in my Sunday School class shared a birthday on Saturday, so they brought in donuts, which blew my sugar ration right out the window. Then one of the kids from my other class, the one I teach once a month, was baptized during the worship service. Woo-hoo!
I got home feeling kind of tired (probably on the backside of a sugar rush) and made the mistake of lying down in my recliner before we began our weekly Skype session with James and Tabea -- and promptly fell asleep. Well, I sure hope they didn't mind all the snoring...
Afterward, it was time to finish cleaning the house (I swept the floor) and getting the cake ready (Cheryl's department), and then suddenly they appeared in the driveway, right in time for dinner!
We had just enough time to catch up on the latest family news and hear some stories of the nursing school reunion, and then it was time to eat! Afterward, of course, we had some cake and ice cream.
After we had yapped for awhile, Mom and Dad went on to bed -- which is no surprise, considering all the driving they've been doing lately! -- while Cheryl and I stayed up for a bit longer to review an essay that Mary was writing for school.
