Dashing through the snow...

I love this! The Amish live al around my parents and thought they looked so pretty!

Deck the Halls!

Our first day home was spent relaxing...and laughing. My mom waited for us to put the Christmas tree up...I'm so glad she did. My sister Shelly came over and helped. We had to rearrange the living room and then we began...What a nice tree and great memories!

A little detour...

We left Durham around 1:oo p.m. on Friday and took a little detour. We were able to drop off a second year student, Leah, at the Toronto airport. Then just before we crossed the big bridge to the border the gas light came on so we took the exit before the bridge and ended up in Niagara Falls. We finally arrived at my parents at 9:00. Ready for a much needed sleep! We had great weather all the way home. Praise the Lord!!!

See you next year...

We left our classmates Friday after our morning class and a time together. Here is our complete class ready for a break. What a group! Merry Christmas to the best class ever!

We'll be home for Christmas!

We are getting ready to head to New York for our Christmas Break. We hear that the weather back in the states is quite blustery so please pray for us as we travel. It looks like we will be leaving Friday around noontime. We have morning classes and then the class will hang out for awhile before we all go our separate ways. I ask that you please pray for all those who will traveling from here and especially for those who are unable to go home for Christmas.

This little piggy...went to our freezer!

A local farmer donated 6 large pigs! We were able to skin them and cut them up...what fun!

Party!

Holly and her daughter Ruth wanted to have a girl's get together..if Ruth and Holly are involved it's a party! They had great food, a chocolate fountain and several goodies to dip into the chocolate, fun games and a good movie! Thanks Holly and Ruth for a great night together!
