Easter Weekend
This Easter weekend was a great one. I worked Friday until around 8:30pm. Andrew cooked me dinner at my apartment that evening. He had it ready when I came home from work.
Saturday morning, Andrew and I went to his Grandparent's auction. They are in the process of selling the family farm. After we were at the auction for a while, his Grandpa was ready to go home and so were we, so we took him back to his house and hung out there for the afternoon. It was so comforting as the exchanges between his Grandpa and him, and also their house and the whole environment reminded me of being at Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's house in Valley. I miss those times. I played Andrew's Grandma's piano for quite a while, then Andrew and I played cards. When everyone else got home, I learned how to play Pinochle, and the importance of this game to the Hopp family. It's similar to my family and the game Shanghi. We went over to Andrew's Aunt and Uncle's house for supper and more Pinochle. His entire family is very sweet and made me feel at home. I enjoyed spending time with them and as always, I love observing people and how they interact. It was a great evening.
Back in Lincoln Sunday morning, I went to early church, then came back to my parent's house and took a 2 hour nap! Wooo! After awaking from this wonderful nap, my parents and I met my mom's friend at the Cornhusker and had Easter brunch at the hotel. This was the second year we had our Easter meal here, and I really enjoyed the atmosphere. After brunch, we went back home and I began looking through pictures from when I was younger. Mom, Dad, and I went to the movie Failure to Launch later that afternoon. It was a funny movie. We went back home after that, and Dad and I looked at old pictures the rest of the afternoon. It felt great to be home. Later that evening, I went to Husker Courtyards to visit Steph, Steph, and Sarah. It was great to see them. I intended to leave around 11pm because I had to get up early the next morning, but didn't leave until 12:30am....and it was worth it! I miss living there and being close to those girls.
Monday morning, I woke up early and drove to Falls City to spend time with Andrew's family. I really enjoyed the day. We drove around the town, walked around Andrew's high school, then Andrew's mom and I looked at his and my baby pictures. We played Scrabble and I drove their manual transmission pick-up truck. We ate 2 yummy meals and played a couple games of Pinochle.
Andrew and I talked for the entire ride home. We had serious talks and we also laughed a lot. I am very much in love. Words just can't do justice....
Have a wonderful week!
