Technically William’s birthday was yesterday, but we were able to spend the day with him today. Of course before we could go, the snow that blew in last night has to get moved out of the way.
Cleaning the yard before we headed out to see William today
It’s just crazy this year. You get the yard cleaned up just in time for the next snow storm to roll in. And what are they predicting for Monday? Winter storm warning. Yea, who would have guessed? So when the sun was shining this morning it was time to make our escape and head south to wish William a Happy Birthday. Our plans were to take him out for dinner. So that’s just what we did. Kyle, Jude (William’s girlfriend) and also William’s roommate were able to join and that made it even more fun. The place we wanted to eat at was packed, but that gave us time to catch up with everything that the kids were doing. William had a really busy week with some big tests and I think he said he went to 3 job interviews. He was just beat. So we knew that this visit was going to be a fast and quick one. He looked like he just wanted to crash someplace. But after a great dinner we headed back to the dorm so Kyle could see the room before he leaves for Korea. Kyle hasn’t had much chances to visit William at school so we wanted to take any opportunity when we can to get the boys together. After checking out what the kids did to rearrange the dorm room again, it did seem to give them more room. Next year they’re planning on living in an apartment so that’ll be even more room! After dropping off the muffins and bread that I made yesterday, we found ourselves heading back home. It sure doesn’t seem like 20 years could actually have gone by that fast could it? I mean, wasn’t it just yesterday that we were bringing William home for the first time? And now here he is at college and starting his own life. Humm.. I know that I’m supposed to support the kids growing up, but no one ever said that I had to like it!
Happy Birthday William!
