We've had a good weekend but a busy one! It definitely feels like December, as it is getting busier and busier around here. On Saturday, Matt hung out with some guys in the morning and another guy in the afternoon. And on Saturday evening, I had some girls over to teach me how to knit. We even managed to make it to the post office in all the craziness to send off Christmas gifts to our families. (The post office is, of course, always an ordeal; this trip, we had to finish wrapping our gifts in the post office line after the workers had approved all our gifts! To say the least, we caused a bit of a scene.) And this afternoon, we have a group of my students coming over at 4pm to hang out, as well. It's been a fun couple of days. We've been reminded again how great it is to live on the same campus as our students! Looking back at last year, we could never have had so many opportunities for students just to drop in. We are very thankful.
