Fall Break Guests No. 2 and 3

Corey and Alex showed up Friday night to round out our fall break. Per usual, Alex and Jeremy got right to playing as if they see each other all the time. Like Jeremy and Ethan, these two seem to forget that they live in separate cities.

The long weekend was busy with Minecraft, playing outside, and goofing off. We took the older boys to see The Martian and sat fireside Sunday night to make s’mores. We cooked and colored and kept things casual.

One thing that cannot go unmentioned is that Corey and I spent a chunk of Saturday on UT’s campus prior to the Tennessee-Georgia game.

I had to work the parking lot at the Presbyterian Campus Ministry house (UKirk at UTK) where I serve on the board. After hanging out around the tailgaters, we stole a few minutes to watch The Pride of the Southland Band play Rocky Top as it marched to the stadium.

Along the way we ran into Jeb Bush. Not my favorite presidential candidate, but neat nonetheless. We shook hands.

We probably won’t see Corey and Alex again until after the holidays, but that’s fine. Whenever we get together again it will be as if no time has passed. That’s what friendship is all about. When you keep one another in the fold, the distance doesn’t really matter.
