Last weekend, my younger brother David came to visit me for a couple days. He could only stay Sunday through Tuesday morning because he had to get to Munich for his Wheaton in Germany program.
He arrived about an hour before JSB (Junior/Senior Banquet), which is basically Prom. As a Junior Class sponsor, I was already there helping set up. A friend picked him up at the airport and brought him straight to the banquet. He had changed into his suit in the Frankfurt airport!
David's here!
I couldn’t stop smiling the entire night. It was so good to have David there!
The theme for JSB was Broadway, so we had decorated the tables to match various shows. Here’s a Phantom of the Opera table:

Throughout the evening, students performed on the stage. Performances ranged from an a capella trio of guys singing “Dynamite” to 2 girls singing a song they had written for the seniors. One of my violin students performed!

JSB turned out to be a fun evening, especially after the work we had put into it. Having David there made it even better!
On Monday, David came to school with me. After my first period study hall, we went outside and played frisbee and wandered around town all day.
There aren't many better places to play frisbee!
King of the Mountain
After school, I had orchestra, so David went to the track practice. He ended up coaching the long jumpers and triple jumpers! I got to watch the end of their practice.

That night we stayed up really late playing games, talking, and praying. Tuesday morning he was on a bus and off to Munich!
