We know spring is officially here when the tulips outside my office window bloom. I like to refer to these as "my" tulips, although I'm willing to share them with the rest of the building, the university and the very large flocks of visitors who seem to be touring campus an awful lot lately.
Aren't they festive!
Spring also means we had our Spring banquet for the student leadership program that I'm a co-leader for. It was lots of fun, but a little sad, too, as my good friend and other co-leader is leaving at the end of next week to move back to the east coast.
I'll miss her friendship greatly!
Despite this bittersweet aspect, the event was a huge success, and everyone seemed like they had a great time! This was the first year we had the program, so it's been a bit of a trial and error to get things to run smoothly. The best thing about last night is that the students coming into the program as new participants seemed to really get along well with the students who are continuing in the program.
This is almost the whole group; we had a few students who had to leave early for other meetings.
Looking forward to lots of fun with the students next year!
I love the tulips - we're several weeks behind you with our flowers.
ReplyDeleteThat tulip photo would make wonderful fabric.
