Spring Break : The End

Part 3: Out Came the Sun, and Dried Up All The Rain

Most Houstonians will recall the horrible storms on Wednesday. Well they were BAD! We were supposed to pack up and leave on Wednesday and we were working hard to get out of there quickly. My dad had to get back to the office and Leah and Michael went home early, so it was just my mom and me finishing some laundry. We watched the black sky move towards us, coming up the canal. Right as we were loading the car it started to rain, and the pour and then HAIL!! And so I drove home in the first of the bad storms. Yucky!

When we got home we changed out of our wet clothes and took warms showers. I spent a little quality time with the kitties when MORE rain came, and MORE hail!! It was rainy so unbelievably hard. And we were supposed to go downtown to see 7 Brides for 7 Brothers. But luckily it slowed down and we made it ok.

We had this great meal and saw the show and had such a good time, or at least I did. Seven Brides for Seven Brothers has always been one of my favorite movies since I was a little kid. Leah and I would pretend to be dancing in our "underwear" tossing the bouquet to one another. Plus I really enjoy going to the theater. It is so exhilarating. I love it!



Then on Sunday, after church of course, we went up to Brenham to see the bluebonnets. They weren't totally out yet, but it was a pretty day and there were several patches of them all around. One of my favorite times of year is spring. Driving home from Abilene I always got to see them bloom. And all the cows had little babies! They were too cute.

And that was Spring Break!
