The Globetrotters, Visitors, & More

Wow, we have been up to a lot in the last month!

Ben and I went and saw the Harlem Globetrotters perform on A&M's campus with my work. We were able to meet the President and Vice President since I worked on their website last fall. It was a fun activity for us to go to!

We've had two visitors.....

1. My friend from college, Amy Troost, came to visit the first weekend of the February. It was so much fun to have her here even though it was very short - she flew in Friday night and then back on Monday. We were able to go shopping and show her around campus.

2. My mom came to visit! She just left yesterday and flew down on Wednesday, it was also so nice to have her here. We took her to the Blue Bell Ice Cream factory, got pedicures, did LOTS of shopping, and introduced her to the Wii addiction.

It was so sad to have both of them leave us, but such a joy to see familiar faces again!

Otherwise, Ben has been really busy with school. He had to give his "kids" their midterm this week which has provided Ben with lots of grading. Work is going well for me, I was able to take 3 days off when my mom was here so that was really nice to have a little vacation.

Hope all is well at home!
