More December Happenings

Merry Christmas to all of you. What a wonderful weekend we had. We sold a lot of our furniture and now we are down to just a few more pieces to sell. We still need to sell our house and our Buick Rendezvous but God has been faithful and we praise him for that. Can you believe Christmas is next week? Where did the time go. It has just turned cold here in SW Florida, o.k. so it's only in the 60's. Yesterday we were in the 80's. We are very spoiled weather wise here. I have a feeling we are going to freeze in Virginia. You should have seen my kids this morning going to school you would have thought there was a snow storm outside. But it's nothing that a cup of hot chocolate can't fix.

This weekend we let the dog go to his new home with David's parents. The dog is so happy there. But the children are sad. Please pray for our children. This selling of everything and giving away their dog is really hard on them. I've never had to move much so this is difficult for me too. I can't imagine what it is like for them. They really only have about 2 weeks left of school. Please pray for them as they go through this week and especially the week of January 7th.

David has just finished another seminary course so he gets some time off from studying. I am so proud of him. January 2nd is his last day of work. He will be taking next week off for the holidays. Speaking of holidays we will be going to Orlando for Christmas. Please pray for travel mercies. This will be our last Christmas in Florida for a while. It doesn't seem real. On one hand I am so excited to go but on the other hand it is hard to say goodbye to family and friends and the life we have known here.

I want to thank you all for your prayers and support. Please keep praying! I pray that all of you have a very Christ filled Christmas.
