Secrets and Surprises!

Nick came to visit me this weekend. The best thing about it was that it was a HUGE surprise. Nick and my whole family had me convinced that my brother Danny was coming to visit. So, at the airport, I was looking for Danny, and there was Nick instead. I cried (a lot), and it was one of two surprises that Nick's been able to keep from me--the other being the ring, of course! Anyway, here are some highlights from the weekend:

Nick's tour of Georgetown--he asked me not to visit campus until he could show me around.

Dahlgren Chapel





Healy Hall (front & back)





The steps from the movie The Exorcist, which I have yet to see.



Also, I didn't take my camera with us, but we did go to the Georgetown-Cincy game on Saturday (Win for the Hoyas, 76-57). Everyone's pretty excited about GT basketball right now, after last week's win over then-#1 Duke. Though I am a huge Duke/Coach K fan, I must say that I am happy the Hoyas are doing so well--I even cheered for them against Duke, much to the disappointment of my sister Mary Ann. Speaking of Mary Ann, this one's for you, from Nick:

Didn't you love your tour of Georgetown's campus? And your tour guide was super hot! You should marry him.

I am surprised by your surprises...some of them being...
1) Can't believe you have NEVER seen the exorcist...and you call yourself a good Catholic.

2)Georgetown bball continues to treat their win over Duke as a nat'l championship...wow, where do they go from here?..jk, I actually like to see G-town win some- I rooted for them in the 80's.
that's all for now.

I, too, can't believe you have never seen the Excorcist! I'll never forget the first time I saw it--Dad scared the **** out of me and my high school friends! We were watching it on a black and white on Mason Street!
What awesome experiences for you! Glad the "Nick" surprise worked!
Georgetown looks beautiful!
Your colleagues and their families remain in the Maynard's prayers!

Oh yeah, Happy Groundhog's Day!
