Hello all, we are going to be coming back to Williston the beginning of December. Alyssa starts school in Trenton with Mrs. Nelson December 3rd. It is funny how God works, I was wishing for Alyssa to be able to go Kindergarten with Michelle when we were moving back from Minneapolis but Minot opened up and I was thinking that she wouldn't be able to have her as her teacher. I am very excited that Alyssa will be doing a Christmas program out at Trenton school. It will be like going back in time about 21 years for my mom and dad. She is a little mirrored image of her mom that is for sure. Zoe found my favorite blankie today at my parents house. I showed the girls the blankie that I had from the time I was a new baby till the time I moved out and got married (Ross wouldn't let me bring it when we got married (= ) ) She has not set that blanket down since she saw it. That makes me smile! It will be a very rewarding time moving in with both sets of parents for the short time that we will be back home. It will bring back alot of very good memories for me and it will make alot of new memories for my daughters also. It will also be a very stressful time with so many different changes happening, but God will always be by our side and show us He never leaves us or forsakes us. We are ready to leave to Mexico end of Jan. beginning of Feb. We are positive that God will provide the supporters that we will need. It is all in His timing. I am sure everyone is starting to think of Thanksgiving time. I love having family around and all the food. Bring on the sweet potatoes. Shelby and I will have to fight each other for them (= This will be the time for the rush of the holiday madness. Just remember why we are celebrating Christmas. It is not about the presents it is about Jesus. That is it!!! Don't let yourself get stress over this holiday season. Cast all your cares upon HIM. When you think about all that you have to do, all the presents you have to get. Thank Him for them people that you are getting the gifts for and thank Him for that last breath you took. Because you are not guaranteed the next one. Let this Holiday season be different. Enjoy your family and tell your loved ones that you love them and appreciate them. It will give you that extra joy that is suppose to come along with Christmas. Not the scrooge attitude. Also please please please give time for your Savior that came down to earth in the most humble of was. Praise Him!! Shout Hallelujah!!!
Love ya Mandy
