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.

It's Our Anniversary!

Wow, 28 years ago today in Napanee, Ontario CANADA I became Mrs. Howard P. Watson, Jr. As I look back over the years, it makes me feel tired, LOL. A lot of water has gone under the bridge, but one thing has remained! Our love for each other! Isn't it awesome after 28 years we still love each other? We don't see this a lot in our world today. In 28 years many people have several partners! Not us. We are in this together for the long haul!

I wish I was as skinny as I was then, LOL. I am posting a wedding picture. The rest all all packed away. I had to dig this out of a box to even have 1 to post.

On another note, Missie got his knot under her chin. It was sore, and by today it had grown and was going down her neck. So Jr. took her to Dr.'s care and the dr. said it was swollen lymph gland and gave her antibiotics. If it gets bigger or doesn't get any smaller in a week, she needs to have a follow up appt. for a biopsy. I think it will be ok. He said even bacteria from her acne might have gotten in there. So hopefully the antibiotics will do the trick.

Well, our house here is sold. A guy Jr. worked with at both places he has worked here in SC is getting here. He came and looked at it today. He has a daughter and granddaughter that will be living with him. It will be good for them. He has had it rough; his wife left him several years back and the daughter has given him a fit at times. Anyhow, Jr. and I are glad he is getting it.

Last night, my good friend (like a sister to me) came over and spent the night; she and her 3 children, and stayed until about 11 this a.m. We had a nice time together. I will miss them a lot. We have remained close over the years. Like I said, she is like a sister to me and I love her children so much. Her husband is in training this weekend with the National Guard, so we decided to get together for part of the weekend.

So that is the latest for now! Oh, Missie was so excited because all the paperwork from her new school came in the mail. It is so reasonable in price, and her nana is buying her some uniforms and helping buy her paces (books) too. Anyhow, she has read through the whole handbook and is very excited.

Until next time!

Oh, yes, I remember Napanee, Ontario Canada 28 years ago. Ben was your best man! And he still is my best man 28 years and 2 months later! I wish you the best as you make your move.
