Easter

As you all can see, even if Jason and I had planned on coming home....it is not happening.

The snow started late tuesday night and hasn't stopped. It's a different world up here. My car has a spare tire on it and would not make it out of Marquette, let alone all the way down to GR and jason's truck....well...it's a FORD. Do I need to say anything else! : ) Just kidding hun! It's a great truck, just absolutely worthless in the snow. So, try as we might we are "stuck" here.

We have made alternate plans though. I had told Jason that I really wanted to have all of our friends over and make dinner, and he pointed out that that would cost more than I think it will. He was right so I let it go. But! I'm getting my Easter dinner. One of our friends who wasn't able to go home this weekend either had the same idea. So as of right now we have about 8-15 people coming to our teeny apartment for dinner tomorrow night...AND they are all bringing something. So i don't have to do all of the cooking!

It's amazing how God just knew that this was what I needed and figured it all out for me. I wish that I were going to be closer to all of you. But we will be home next weekend! I hope that everyone has a blessed day tomorrow and just soaks up all the love from your families!

lots of love from the UP! Stacey (p.s. that is me in the picture on wednesday night!)
