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.

Wow! It's Saturday!

Time goes so fast. Enjoy each day because we never know when it will be our last.

Well, Missie did not recover to go to the ACE competition. She was so sick! I took her to dr. on Tues., and they said it could be pneumonia but the dr. didn't bother to take a chest exray. The reason for this was that Missie's regular dr. was not in and she saw someone else. She at least had asthmatic bronchitis with possible pneumonia. So she gave her antibiotics, a new asthma inhaler, 2 kinds of cough meds. She is not coughing at much; the antibiotics are helping. But she is having a hard time getting her strength back, and she is still coughing some. She was very disappointed but she was so happy because she got to talk to some of the girls every day via telephone or texting. Someone called her each day and a bunch of them would holler in the background, "We love you, Missie" and it made her so happy. It was so sweet of them. She loves her school and youth group friends. She can hardly do anything without having to lay down. If she is not a lot better by Tues. I am taking her back to her own dr. on Wed. a.m. This really hit her hard! She hasn't been sick with this lung infection since she was quite young. I put her on vitamin c and for years she didn't have it. But she got it this year. Continue to pray for her recovery.

Preston is loving his new bike. He is out riding as I type this. He rides for hours and it is so relaxing for him!

Junior is glad to be back at work. He worked 10 hr. shifts Mon-Thurs., from 3p.m. to 1:30 a.m. and gets home about 2 a.m. I don't sleep too well going to bed alone. But we are soooo thankful he has a job! Hopefully he can be hired by the company itself and not be a temp. for much longer. It would be nice to have medical insurance again for him and I.

So that is the latest! I guess we have a touch of spring fever. Even though it is just 44, I opened windows for a few minutes to get the house aired out and maybe get rid of the sick bugs that might be in here. We are doing some stuff around, and enjoying this cool sunny day!

Until next time!
