It's been awhile since I have found the time to post anything; the last few weeks have brought huge changes to my life - and yes, they have been fun. A new relationship, buying a house, and taking a new coaching position have made life exciting but very, very busy.
I'm sure I will address these new ventures in detail later, but today the topic is birthdays - namely, mine. This year it falls on a Monday which means teaching all day, tennis practice, and a parent meeting, but my loved ones have ensured that I have been celebrated and felt loved. It has been amazing! Saturday was a trip to Jonathan and Laura's; Andrew came along to meet them for the first time. We had a wonderful day, including a trip to the now legendary Big Donut, time in a bookstore (shocking), incredible meals made by my lovely sister-in-law, Apples to Apples, and lots of laughing. On Sunday, after church and coffee with Mom and Dad, Andrew took me out to lunch at Flanagan's. We then picked up crazy snacks at the gourmet grocery store and went on a driving adventure around Indiana. There have been moments of fun interspersed among the duties of today as well. My co-worker Melissa brought in an incredible spread of treats for my birthday: chocolate oreo layer cake, strawberry trifle, carrot cake-like bars, and brownie bites with peanut butter cups. I have also been getting clues about a birthday surprise yet to come. I am feeling very blessed.
