Savoring the Silence

I have had a nice quiet week. Sunday I shipped my family off. Leland went to Dallas with 9 journalism students for a workshop and the kids went to Pappy and Grammy's house. Sunday was very quiet and relaxing, although I had a very difficult time going to sleep. Monday after work my friends Lauren and Shannon and I went to see Pirates - very good; we had a good time.

Tuesday evening I worked on making some baby blankets for my brother and his wife. They are due anytime. :) They live in Houston and apparently city people don't make homemade blanket for new parents. I have two full shelves of only handmade blankets in Raylee's closet. Kelly said she received just a few bought ones. So I'm trying to get a few made for her.

Tonight will be full of working on more blankets and church services. My family all returns tomorrow. I glad. I've really missed having my favorite people around me. I'm not quite sure that I'm ready for the craziness to return, but it will all be worth it to see them all again.
