Marit’s Birthday

On Thursday night, Emily and I, along with Marit’s roommates Natalie and Jenna, snuck into Marit’s office and filled it with balloons!

Friday morning, Marit came to the orchestra room at the end of orchestra for a rehearsal with one of my violinists. The orchestra played a lovely rendition of “Happy Birthday” as a surprise! Marit was definitely not expecting it!

After school, a group of us went to her house to enjoy the dinner her roommates had prepared. Marit showed us her favorite spot to watch the sunset. It was a gorgeous display!

We brought carrots to feed the sheep living in the Christmas tree farm.

The sheep didn't trust me.

Emily was the only one able to get the sheep to eat from her hand.

Ready for the sunset!

It was a relaxing evening with friends – sunset, dinner, and movie. We’re glad Marit is here!
