December Events

Continued...
Christmas Day we drove to Waco to spend the next
"Christmas" with Granny (Viola) and Grampa (Jim),
Jeremy's parents.
Uncle Chris and Aunt Becky brought Baby Coralyn.
It was our first time to meet Coralyn too.
(She is 6 weeks younger than Alex.)
Coralyn is a super happy baby; She lights up the room.
She has her mommy's lively spirit.
After Family Pictures (to be seen soon!)
We drove to Athens Texas, also known as
"Palmer Oaks" and the retirement land, for some R &R.
We froze to death and got a lot of work done.
With no running water and minor electricity, the wood-burning
stove did a lot for the place.
Marshmallows over the fire, nightly, did a lot for our spirits.
******
Granny and Grampa kept the kiddos for a few days.
Jeremy and I went to a well-needed, marriage retreat.
Thank you, you know who you are!
******
It was a sad good-bye, as we all went our separate ways.
It was GREAT to spend some time with Chris, Becky and Coralyn.
We have not had much time to get to know the new additions
to our family in the last few years.
******
Praise the Lord for a few job opportunities He has provided.
Please pray for guidance in the choices for our future.
Praise the Lord for the addition of a minivan to our lives.
I do feel old. Mom with a minivan. I guess it was going to happen
sooner or later!!
Please pray for our adjustment to America... it is difficult.
Six years is a long time to be "out of it".
******
Thank you for all of your support during these past few years.
God has done amazing things.
Please let us hear from you...
January 2007 (Is it really?????)
