Cal's Home

Cal arrived home late last night as IU has Spring Break next week.  His last class ended on Thursday at 6:30, so he was thrilled to start a ten day break at home.  Last year he went with his friends to Florida, but was happy to hang out with all of us and HM this year.  Brett will be going on a mission trip to Chicago this Spring Break.  They are going to help with an after school youth program and work in a soup kitchen, among other volunteer work.  He leaves on Sunday and will come home next weekend to enjoy a few days here before he leaves.

I was glad to have Cal here to go to Bob's visitation with Mom, Dad and I.  It was sad to have to do, but important for all of us to be there.  Rena was holding up a lot better than I would have expected.  After we talked with her we did find several other people to catch up with.  Cal was the youngest person there, but yet knew so many of the visitors from either Tippy Country Club or Maxwelton.  In the end we decided that my Dad would be the perfect funeral home greeter.  He knows everyone in our area and enjoys talking with others.

Doug made dinner tonight for Cal, Doug, Cam and I.  Preston was in town, so Meg went to see "A Wrinkle in Time" with him.  They stopped at Steak and Shake afterward.  Cam, Doug and I stayed home.  Cal decided to go over to Cameron's later in the evening.  Jayce hung out with them there as well.  Doug and I rented "In the Name of the Father", a Daniel Day Lewis movie from the early 1990s.  It was very interesting.
