hello sunshine.


it's hard to believe that we have almost made it through our first year here at indiana wesleyan. where did the time go? students finished their finals this past week, and most are now gone for the summer. graduation was this morning for the seniors, and really besides them all who are left are those staying for the 3 week crash courses of May Term. you can def. feel the emptiness on campus compared to the 3,000+ students who live here during the school year. they get done so early here, and they still manage never to start until after labor day.
the weather here has been so wonderful. i've been soaking up the sun and warm breezes, trees are blossoming like crazy, flowers are blooming, and IWU did not dissappoint with its array of tulips (my favorite flowers). i've been so tempted to pick just a few, i do hate to uproot them, but at the same time i love having them in my apt. so i did, and they are currently full blossom on my window ceil.
i had the kiddies outside for a good four hours yesterday. all that running around sure did tire keagan and myself out, however, of course not ellie, she refused to fall asleep during nap time. *sigh* ah well. i hope to tire them out some more in the coming weeks as the weather stays nice.
alas, not too much to update on. after may our life gets crazy again for a summer filled with, dare i say, a bit too much travel. i'm kinda just soaking in the calm breeze before the whirlwind hits. so i'm off to relax with debo, and maybe play some old Sega Sonic games with him before i curl up outside on a blanket. may your weekends be lovely and oh have a tulip or two from me to you.

Sounds like a lovely, relaxing day!! I thought of you earlier this week when Andrew and I were on walk and looking at all of the different colored tulips :)

We're headed out at the end of June, so once we get settled we'll have to pick a good spot to rendezvous :)
