Happy New Year!

Hello everyone. If this is your first time to read our blog welcome. Feel free to read over the archives to find out more about our family adventure. We had a wonderful Christmas. We went to Orlando to spend time with my (Tracy) family. We took the children to Sea World the Sunday before Christmas and then we were treated to The Dixie Stampede Christmas Show on Sunday night. We all had a wonderful time. Christmas Eve we went to church and we spent Christmas Day at my brother-in-law and sisters new house. Our nieces got a Wii for Christmas. We had so much fun playing with it all day. My grandmother even bowled with us. It was so much fun.

As wonderful as Christmas was our biggest present came a couple of days after Christmas. Micah accepted Jesus into his heart! December 28th Micah was asking us questions and we asked him if he would like to say the prayer. He said "no" and so we dropped it. Then later that day David and he were in the car talking about Jesus and Micah said that he would like to ask Jesus to live in his heart. So David led him in the prayer. Sunday he walked down the isle and told our church what his decision was and then he was baptized. It was a glorious day! Today I asked him "Micah how long does Jesus live in your heart?" (I was making sure he really understood, he is only 5 1/2) He told me "forever mom, didn't you hear? " Isn't that great? He gets it. Please pray that Micah would be able to walk with Jesus his whole life. That he would never stray from his faith.

We are still working on the selling of things. All of the furniture is sold. We are working on selling David's truck and the house. Today a couple came through twice (on New Year's Day) please pray that we get a contract. David's last day is tomorrow. Pray that it is a great day for him. We are in the process of packing and saying goodbye. Please keep praying for us during this transition. We appreciate you all so much. Thank you for your prayers and friendship.

David & Tracy
