Christmas Break

Hello!

Once again I have fallen behind in updating my blog, and for that I apologize.

Thanksgiving break turned out to be very interesting - I had car problems in Mississippi and ended up spending Wednesday, all day Thanksgiving day, and part of Friday, in Brandon, MS. The vast majority of Wednesday, and Friday morning, I sat in a shop while my car was being worked on. Eventually i got it fixed, and returned to Longview on Friday. Saturday one of my professors invited me over for Thanksgiving leftovers, and I went over there for a delicious supper. Shortly after I got there, though, my car was backed into. Not a whole lot of damage was done, though, thankfully.

My semester finished out well - I was reasonably pleased with my grades, and was able to spend some time with friends. I finished finals on Wednesday evening, drove to Tennessee on Thursday, where I spent the night with my uncle and aunt, then Friday drove to Virginia. The following Thursday (the 15th) I went to West Virginia and picked up Becky from college after she finished her finals, then we came back down to Virginia, where my parents are still staying with my grandparents while they continue to look for work and thus a new home. Yesterday, the 19th, my parents and I took Becky to the airport in Charlotte, NC, for her to fly home to Vermont, then my parents and I spent the night with my sister Sarah. This morning we came back up to Virginia, and tomorrow morning (Wednesday) my parents and I will be driving to Tennessee to spend the night with my uncle and aunt again, then Thursday we're heading to Dallas, where I plan to spend the remainder of my Christmas break.

Let me know how I can be praying for you, and may you have a blessed Christmas.
