Once again, Sarah performed in a musical with Family Music Theater in Dallas. We took her a fragrant bouquet from our yard.
Hannah met us Friday night, and we enjoyed a relaxed evening of teaching her how to play 42, one of our favorite games.
Katherine still needed to finish reading the last act of Shakespeare's "The Tempest", and she had the foresight to bring extra copies. The four of us each read different characters aloud with fun voices. One of my favorite books of Shakespeare's plays is this beautifully illustrated by Alice and Martin Provensen.
Saturday morning my precious friend Roxanne made space in her busy weekend to go for a walk together. I miss our regular "walky-talky" times together in the Solomon Islands.
After the walk, we hosted a brunch for Aaron's folks who had attended the performance on Friday night. Sarah and one of her housemates came, too. We borrowed Sarah's iron skillet to make some frittatas. The time together was an unexpected treat!
We attended the matinee of "Anastasia", since I still don't do very well with late nights. As always, our Gebauer friends were also on stage. What a joy to have so many years of performing with them on both sides of the world.
Connor and Olivia met us at the house after the performance, they had attended another performance with Connor's brother on stage just the night before in Oklahoma. I'm so grateful that our crew is willing to take the time and effort to root for each other and to be together as much as our schedules allow. The newlyweds attended the closing performance on Saturday night.
We all went to church with Sarah on Sunday morning, then she graciously fed us lunch before we all needed to part ways again. We packed a lot of laughter and catching up into just a few hours!
