This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

Saturday!

Well, it has been a busy day.

Junior went this a.m. and got a part for our mower and got all of the mowing done, thank the Lord. I HATE long grass and weeds. We have a lot of weedeating to do after the mowing gets done. He got a lot of it done, but not quite all, and made 2 trips to the dump with garbage.

I left at 12:30 to meet Aunt Beulah at Miracle Mart on Wade Hampton and we looked around there and she gave me the 2 huge boxes of adult diapers they had bought for us. Then she took me out for lunch to a new buffet on Wade Hampton, it was very good! She also sent home corn on the cob, eggplant, squash, cucumbers, and some fruit. Then I stopped at another thrift store and ran into an old friend from Taylors who is moving to AZ at the end of the month, so I was very glad we got to see each other. Then I came home and unloaded everything and left again to pick up Missie. So I got Missie and went back into Greenville. I went into the hospital to the pharmacy to get some meds. they owed me and of course it was closed. Then we went to the library to meet another of Missie's friend so she could come home and spend the night and go to church with us in a.m. We went in and got some dvds and stories on cd and tape for Preston. Now I am home, thank goodness.

Preston wants to go to church. It won't be long until we can take him in his wheelchair, I don't think. I got Preston up twice today by myself because he stood straight up on his legs for me and took steps! He is getting stronger every day. He keeps talking about food, so I don't think it will be long until he is eating again. We will know when he is ready!

So it has been a productive and busy day.
