No longer on the river and, again, an empty nester. Back to living on Fleming Island and making some more friends!

Martin Luther Prep choir

I know it's not exactly correct to include the "Martin" in the title but I am an old school girl, so to speak. My kitchen is ready to go for making the lunches for the four students I will be keeping. I mixed up a pitcher of orange juice to serve them for breakfast. Hopefully the lunch bags I have are large enough to hold the stuff I bought for them. Might have to switch to grocery bags instead!

The weather is nice today so I hope whatever the kids are doing for entertainment is outdoors. They might even take home a suntan or worse yet, a burn, from their time in FL. If they are originally from "up north" our relatively cool weather is warm to them. No snow, which is a plus!

I don't know if I am getting girls or boys as my guests. One will have to sleep away from the others as the air bed, single, will be set up in the living room. The others will stay in the guest room. My suggestion for them will be to have two shower at night and two in the morning in order for there to be enough hot water for us all. 
                                        
Their bus leaves at 8:00 a.m. so it will be an early wake-up for us. Hopefully traffic will not be a concern but I wish to leave here around 7:15, just in case. Michael C. is in charge of the whole works and said he will be at church to receive drop-offs at 7:00 for those who are on their way to work. They can eat their breakfast here (bagels and cream cheese) or take it with them if time runs short. I also have some 'hot' cross buns if they prefer. Got my first ones yesterday and sadly, they are not as delicious as I remember them! I wish the buns were less dense, I guess. They are good, make no mistake, but I like them less compacted!

Justin and I are trying to orchestrate our Easter celebration. He has plans to go to the Hilltop Restaurant with Jesse and his family, as is their custom, which would be right from church. If I have a feast, I will serve late afternoon or evening, as I will be starving by that time! I am looking forward to having people around the table again, but am not sure who will be available to come. Highways and byways, anyone?
