Yesterday was my last day of teaching at Holy Cross and the last day for the kids at their respective schools. It was a day filled with very mixed emotions and plenty of tears. We will all miss our friends here very much and will always treasure the memories of our special year away.
We have had a week of farewells kicking off last Friday night with the HCSS Staff Social. Here the staff presented me with a beautiful gift. Saturday evening was pleasantly spent with Bill & Sandra Duff - our Kiwi friends. Monday was spent catching up with our good friend, John Menzo. Tuesday night was the Mother Teresa Family Mass. On wednesday, John and I went to Michele's for Dinner. Thursday evening saw us out attending the Katharine Splinter Memorial Concert where Emily performed in both the Junior Band and the Vocal Ensemble. Last night was drinks at Ann & Sean's annual Christmas bash. And today? Well, today we are off to the swimming club for a surprise farwell party for the boys. We are also attending a skating party for one of Nick's friends. Tonight we will visit with Chris MacDonald and his family! Sunday night, it's out to Chez Piggy with Don & Linda and on Monday we will host Harry & Sandy Murphy at out home!
I think I need a holiday!
