Farewell Weekend

Early on Friday, Laurel and I went up to St. Fran. to spend the day with Cary and Emma. Cary was home on her spring break and Emma had the day off of school, too. We had fun together and helped Emma get ready for her Jr./Sr. prom. She looked so beautiful! Trey arrived later that evening and we had a great weekend with everyone.

Dad was scheduled to leave for Bethesda, MD, on Sunday, so the night before he left, he and Momma invited some of their closest friends and family over for dinner. Dr. Kenny and Mrs. Karen and Mr. Bob and Mrs. Suzie kept us entertained all evening. They had Dad laughing at some great old stories, and we even found out some new stories about Momma!

On Sunday, we went to church and the Grace Church family gave Dad a warm goodbye. Then we took Dad to the airport to catch his flight to Bethesda. After some flight cancellations and other headaches, Dad finally arrived in Bethesda late Sunday night. Good luck, Dad! We're pulling for you!
