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.

So sorry!

To my blog followers, I am sorry for this long period between posts. Sometimes I forget to blog!

Life here is about the same. Junior is working 12 hr. shifts 4 nights/week at ASI in Whitestown. My brother says he is too old to be working all night, LOL. He sleeps most of the day. He goes to bed as I am getting up. It is a different lifestyle for us, but we are just thankful he has a job and this week he will get his 1st paycheck with 8 hrs. overtime! For that, we are grateful! We are just thankful he has a job. And praying Junior's health will stay well enough for him to continue this until something else comes along.

Easter was good. We don't do much for Easter except go to church. It is our Lord's resurrection. We celebrate that! I was able to attend both services on Sunday. We had 353 in attendance Sunday a.m. We were pretty full! It was a good time of celebration to our Lord. Sunday night we had communion and Junior was asked to help with that.

We have finally talked Preston into dressing casual for Sunday night, instead of dressing up. It was either that or not go to church. And he is so happy that he has decided to do this. Sunday night he dressed himself and came out and said he didn't feel as nervous as he usually does and was able to attend church and did fine! So ties, belts, etc., are done away with for now. Pants he can just pull up and over the head t-shirts with 3/4 length sleeves without a bunch of buttons to do up, is the way to go for him! So that has solved a big problem! Thank the Lord for that.

Missie is taking therapy at least again this week. She has exercises she does at home every day. We will see what happens with therapy after Friday. The dr. can appeal so hopefully she can get more therapy. It does seem to help. She can't stay on her feet a lot, though, or run or ride her bike yet. The part about her legs going numb is something pushing against a nerve. So! We are still trying to get her help with her hypermobility! She helped at the school Mon. p.m. with "Spring Fling" for all of the Sunday School children. She loves Frankfort, her school, and all the activities when she is well enough to do them! And she loves having friends!

So that is about it for this time! I will try to do better with blogging!
