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.

It's Wednesday!

Well, Jr. started his job on Monday afternoon. Tonight is his 3rd night. His hours are from 3 p.m. to 1:30 a.m., Mon-Thurs. He gets home about 2 a.m. or so, showers and goes to bed and gets up between 10 and 11 a.m. I get up and take Missie to school. I have been sleeping at night even though he isn't here. I am so thankful for that, because I cannot function without good rest.

Missie really misses him the most because she doesn't get to see him very much during the week. She wrote him a note on Monday, and he wrote her back. On Wednesdays she gets off at 12:30 so they had some time together today. We actually all got to eat lunch together today. She was so happy about that. We are such a close family and don't have a lot of outside friends, and Junior said we have only have had each other to depend on throughout the years. So we miss our evenings together.

We have 3 baby kittens. They are so cute. Missie absolutely adores them. Her cat snuck out the door and took off and came back pregnant. We have managed to keep Preston's cat in so far! Anyhow, she had 3 baby kittens. Missie has named them all, of course, all names starting with K. Don't ask me what their names are, LOL.

Well, wanted to update. Preston is doing great with Junior's shift. We are so proud of him. Missie was concerned he might not do well, but he is doing great!

Tonight will be the 1st prayer meeting I have had to miss since we moved here I think. I hate to miss, but such is life. It is windy here and chance of thunderstorms and wouldn't want to leave Preston alone.

This is all for now!
