If you are my friend on Facebook then you have probably seen my pictures from Easter break and sort of got an idea of what the weekend was like, but I just felt like sharing in word form what all when down. Pictures do everything justice just fine but hearing some of the back stories are also pretty cool.
The day of the baseball game arrived and the weather was not too good. We kind of had the idea in the back of our minds that we might not be watching the Yankees after all. So early that morning we headed into DC. We took a train since traffic is a nightmare. I love trains and this was Chase's first train ride so the whole experience was a lot of fun. DC was wet and cold, but we still squeezed in a trip to one of the museums, the Washington monument, and the white house. As many times as I have been to DC, it never gets old!!!!!
We met some family friends in Baltimore before heading over to the stadium. They are from the area and we don't get to see them very often so it was a real treat. However, the night did not stay cheery very long. About 20 minutes after we arrived at the stadium, the game was postponed and we had to go back home. I was super bummed but I guess there was really nothing I could do. We got a good hot meal and then went to crash for the night.
The next day we were on our way back home. I was excited since I was going to get to see my long time best friend who moved to VA a while ago. Lunch was so much fun and I love being in her company. No wonder she is my best friend. I guess looking back on the entire mini-vacation, I had an amazing and blessed time. Although everything ended up not being what we planned, it turned out ever better than we planned. God really knows what and when we need it. He is so good.
Easter Sunday was also quite amazing. After annual Easter pics with the boyfriend and family we got to go to church and attend a wonderful service. I love being at my home church so much and it felt good to be back. It had been a while. I am so lucky to be able to attend church here and have a loving and supporting family. Wow I am blessed. Thank you Lord!!!!!!
Oh one more thing I must say before I go. I finished Matthew yesterday. It was neat how Easter was yesterday and my reading was the resurrection of Christ. I fit perfectly and I enjoyed taking it all in. I am not on to the book of Judges. It has been a while since I have looked at this book so I am anxious to learn what it is holding.
Finals are creeping ever so near so if my posts get a little sporadic don't worry, I will be back full steam ahead in about 2 weeks. School is the priority right now and I MUST pass my classes with excellent grades. Please be praying for us all here at school as the stress level rises more and more each day. Also please continue praying for me and my journey to the summer. Only 39 more days to go!!!!! I hope that your Monday was great and that the rest of your week flies by. Also, I pray that your journey is blessed!!!
