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.

Twice in one day??

Actually my other posts for Saturday were at 1 a.m. this morning. I had drank a small cup of holiday peppermint coffee yesterday a.m. and I couldn't sleep because of the caffeine. I am hoping to get to sleep much earlier tonight.

29 cases of whooping cough have been found at BJU. Students will be leaving Fri. to go home; a week early. It is highly contagious. I had it when I was a child. You don't hear much about it lately; but there is this outbreak now. Hoping we will stay clear of it, for sure.

Today has been quite a good day. Preston got up himself out of bed, dressed himself, then undressed this afternoon and got in his pj's. He is improving! He is so sweet; that is one of the best parts of his recovery. Usually every year he worries every day about Christmas and getting gifts, but not this year. He has hardly mentioned it.

I have a splitting headache tonight. I worked on altering a tin this evening, will have to take a picture of it. It is a tin I found at Salvation Army with a snowflake on the top. I used paper, ribbon, rubber stamp, and snowflake stickers and decorated it, leaving the white snowflake on the top of the tin. I am making (I have 5 done) a set of snowflake Happy Winter greeting cards to put in it. I will either sell it or give it as a gift.

Both kiddos are in bed, and I am about done my work for the night. So I am going to try and relax a little bit.

You all have a blessed Sunday.
