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.

Hello on Monday!

Well, it's Monday again. It was quite a busy weekend.

We had a wedding at our church on Sat. After over a year of waiting, (due to the bride not being from US) Bradley and Elizabeth were finally able to have their wedding. It was beautiful with a big crowd!

Sun a.m. was Pastor appreciation service. I am so thankful for our pastor, Bro. Mowery and for our associate and teen pastor, Bro. Johnson. Bro. Mowery is a very caring pastor. Our pastor in Easley was very caring too, so we have been blessed!
Bro. Johnson and his wife, Jody, have done a lot for Missie. They are a blessing! We are privileged people!

Sun p.m. was a service about the Reformation with communion. It was a special time during communion. I am so glad for the Savior who died for our sins that we might have life everlasting. The time of communion was very meaningful for me last night.

Junior hasn't been able to find a full time job yet. We are waiting to see if he can draw unemployment off his SC earnings. We pray he can for the winter. Today he is working with Mike Peck, a man from our church who is self-employed. Preston started to worry about 3 o'clock, because he was not home from work. When he worked in the wood working shop, he was home at 3. Well, it will be about 6 this evening before Junior will be home, and that bothered Preston for a while. He is ok now. He missed having his daddy around, too, as he has been going with him every day when he applies for jobs.

Thurs. is our soup supper; fundraiser for our school. We are going to that, and Missie and I will be helping to clean up after it is over. We also have a silent auction. We are looking forward to going.

I put several auctions on ebay today; praying I can sell some stuff; we just need the money with Junior not working. My ebay link is:

Well, I did a big laundry today, vacuumed and mopped the floors. So I was happy with what I got accomplished.

Until next time!
