Christmas Phone Call

So, I just want to write really quick because I had a GREAT Christmas! The beginning of Christmas Eve day was pretty rough. I was really missing Seth and wanting him here for the Holidays. I have great friends who talked me through it and helped me to feel a little better. Thanks guys! By the time dinner came I was coming out of my funk and getting into the Christmas spirit. This is my favorite holiday after all! We had dinner, our Christmas talent show, read the Christmas story, each opened one gift, watched the Proposal (not really Christmasy but who cares ha ha) and then headed to bed so Santa could come! Christmas morning came and I got some great gifts from Santa and my family. My favorite gift I got was my African Nativity. It is so cute and it is now my prized posession. :) Then I hurried over to Seth's family's house for his Chirstmas phone call! Before we called him we exchanged gifts. His family spoiled me rotten and got me a KINDLE!!! WOW! I love it. Then we got to call Seth! I was the one to dial and got to say hello first. Made me pretty happy. It was a great phone call. I won't go into major details about it because I've already posted them on his blog (elderlancaster.blogspot.com) so go there for more details about that. Then I came home and have been doing laundry and cleaning all day since I am going to TEXAS tomorrow! I'm very excited about that. Well, that's it for tonight. Pictures will be coming soon so watch for them. Merry Christmas!!

One Whole Year

Today is a GREAT day. Seth has been on his mission for one year. I honestly never thought this day would come. Seth has made so much progress and this mission has been the best thing for both of us. I am so happy that he has been able to serve the people of Sierra Leone and learn to love them so much. It's all down hill from here! I am so happy I get to finally start counting down!
