Birthday back home

Well, It was a great weekend,March 13-14, when I took Alex to my parents for the week since she was on Spring Break.We left after I got off work on Friday. We met Ken at 4am Saturday and did Walmart shopping and then had breakfast at Steak and Shake. Then at 6am took Alex to parents and she went back to bed and I went to have breakfast with a friend which I got in trouble due to not eating since I was not hungry. Then at 10am had Starbucks with another friend. Met Janet, another friend from teen age, at Carlos O'kellys for lunch.We visited til 3 then I went to see my district elders from back home who just had a baby girl,day before my birthday. Then met another family from church back home and quickly caught up on life in the ten minutes we had. Then off to dinner to reserve tables to celebrate with friends and family at Logans. It was a great time and there were 16 of us. Later there was 7 of us that went bowling til 10pm. Got to bed around midnight but didn't sleep well due to Alex coughing. Thought church was at 10:30am and not 10 so spent time with mom. Then we met dad and Baughmans for brunch. It was a long and lonely ride home for me and I have done this long of drive before just fine but for some reason it just felt lonely without Alex there, even though she sleeps most of the trip. Can't wait to go get her this weekend. Here is my sister and Alex and I can't wait to go with them to Disney World end of May early June.
