It's official!

I did officially make it into grad school. It was touch and go for a moment there, though. But once I saw that letterhead--well, it was wonderful! I also received a scholarship, and the award letter basically has given me two days to decide. Pressure! Oh well.

I got to go to my parents house this weekend for Easter. I spent time with my family, and some very good friends whom I hadn't seen in months and years, and we love to spend time together once or twice a year, and just refresh. I loved it.

We also had the roadies from Invisible Children staying with us for about five days, so our house was filled to the brim with people sleeping on makeshift beds such as this:


But it was so much fun to share lives with them, if only for a few days! These people have been traveling all over Middle America, showing videos, talking, and spreading the word about The Rescue. I just enjoyed getting to know everyone and hanging out here at home, it was quite relaxing, despite the hectic schedule.

Here's a few pictures of the weekend activities, including egg coloring, the annual burning of the dead Christmas tree, and of course, the ever popular Easter family photo.


Peace!

Oh the Fraley family.... how I miss thee! And, why does Lindsay always look dead?? At least this time she was on a bed and not a big sheet of plastic!
