Good times away from Greenville…

Jared and I spent our Easter weekend back in Emden/Bloomington with our family. It was so good to get away and be around everyone there. Thursday night we hit the road and stopped in Springfield to see Greg, Nora and the boys. We ate supper there and they asked us to be the godparents for baby #3. Of course we said yes!! The baby is due May 6th…and it’s a girl. How exciting!!! We headed up to Emden after that and bummed around the rest of the night before going to bed. Friday we slept in until 11:00 or so…and finally got up and got ready. We spent the day in Bloomington. We went to Samuel Music (where I bought a saxophone book to entice me to play again). We also stopped by the mall and got Jared some new running shoes and had my wedding rings cleaned and inspected. Good Friday service at Vale that night…and then we spent several hours at Steven and Norma’s house…which was good fun. I love having them as family…such awesome people. Saturday we slept in again. That morning we headed over to grandmas house to help get ready for Sunday dinner. She took us out to eat at the Emden Cafe afterwords….yay for greasy small town restaurants! That afternoon my mom and I set out to make lots of cards and other stamping projects…it was so much fun! I love hanging out with mom! Jared went to see his mom that evening after the Illinois game. (Talk about one tense game!) Sunday we went to Vale for church and had lunch at grandma’s with the family. Good times! As always we returned back to Greenville…with great hopes of moving back to the Bloomington area some day once again!
