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.

Wednesday

It has been so hot this week. It was 102.4 here and 82 in Frankfort. Hopefully it is a bit cooler up there. Maybe at least the humidity won't be quite as bad.

Well, Preston's side was doing sooo much better, until he took a tumble Friday evening when we had him out. He had to step down over the curb and he doesn't know what happened, but he ended up flat on his back on the concrete. He was ok except he skinned his elbow and then his rib started to hurt again. But other then a little pain now and then, it is doing much better. He is still taking zantac at this point.

We are packing!!! It is going surprising well so far! I like to have enough time to pack a little along to avoid having to rush.

Missie had to give up her puppy and she was very sad about that. We took her back to the humane society. They will not put her down unless she gets really sick. Missie worked there and knows how they deal with the animals. Hopefully she will get adopted by a nice family. We couldn't find anyone to take one. Missie misses her a lot. We could not take her to IN; the trip itself with her would have been a disaster!

Bro. Johnson called today, and they have sent out of the school information to us! So am anxious to get that and get her uniforms, etc. Missie's nana, my mom, has offered to buy her 1 uniform, so that will help a lot!

Yesterday I had my physical and tomorrow Preston goes to the dentist. We are trying to get this stuff done before we leave.

Friday is a very special day!!!! Junior and I have been happily married for 28 years! Time sure flies! I couldn't have gotten a better husband, and he is a wonderful father to our children. We have been through a lot together in these 28 years! I will try and post a wedding picture; oops, they may be already packed, so that may have to wait. We were both so skinny then; why does time put weight on people?? LOL Anyhow, our anniversary is Friday and my birthday is Monday. I would rather not have any birthdays but guess I don't have a choice, LOL

So that is the latest; found out today that 3 families are moving to Frankfort, us being 1 of them, around the same time, and we all have girls to put in the school; no boys. The new principal has 2 girls too. So it looks like the girls might outnumber the boys!

Over and out for tonight.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! God bless you both with many more happy years together. Phillip and I will celebrate 34 years of marriage Aug. 31. It sounds like the packing is going well. Good for you. The picture of Missie and her dad is very nice.
