Well, we're home!

Hey!

We actually got back on Friday and not Saturday as we had planned. Which was nice because it's always nice to be home after being gone for a couple of days.

We had a great time visiting with PaPa and Grandma Sue and Auntie Debra. Christmas was good....JEB got a haul you can't even imagine!! We also got to see my sister/hubby and kids on Christmas Eve, which was quite nice! They live 2 hrs. north of where my father-in-law lives and it was nice that they could drive down for dinner!

I have to say that staying in a hotel on Christmas Eve and waking up there Christmas morning with no tree or anything Christmasy was kind of odd, but ok. But I was glad to get home. We also had a chance to have lunch with all of his vball girls from Pkway, the school we were at for three years, which was a very nice way to end our visit home.

We had our Christmas on Saturday morning and JEB enjoyed opening all of the presents, especially the ones that were NOT his!! He really didn't care WHAT was in the package, he just wanted to rip off the paper!

Also, just wanted to ask those of you who read this to pray for a couple of people for me today.....if you click the link on my sidebar to MckMama's website, you will be able to read about her infant, Stellan, who survived a pre-birth heart condition and came out whole and well, PRAISE GOD, but is now at 8 wks old is fighting RSV and is in very serious condition. Please pray that GOD will heal his little body and that he would get well.

Another prayer request is for our school football coach, ROCK, who is battling two types of blood cancer and will at the end of January, be going for a stem cell transplant in Atlanta. At the moment, he is battling the flu, but his kidneys are not doing well either. Pray for GOD to heal his kidneys so that this transplant will go on as planned. Pray for his family as well. He has three older children, but a teenage son and a pre-teen daughter at our school. This will be a long journey for them.

As for me, I'm going to continue to enjoy my week off and do all the little things around the house that I don't have the time or the energy to do on a regular basis.
