Hard to believe, but Andrew is now 10! He's so excited to have reached double digits. He also wants you to know, that the balloons were not his! They were left over from my sister's birthday. Having a birthday so close to Christmas can be tough. Andrew actually enjoys getting everything at once. The only problem is being inbetween two holidays, he must wait for his birthday party with friends. Today we had his birthday dinner at my dad's house. Andrew requested marinated steak (on the grill), mashed potatoes, and peas. We had an enjoyable day together and this morning the entire children's worship service sang to him.I still can't believe how old you're getting! (I know you think this means I am getting old-but you're wrong) My prayer for you is to let God take total control of your life and lead you in the right direction. We love you very much and are very proud of you!
We have had a very busy month! We had a wonderful Christmas. We also had many other activities. I thought I'd share a few with you. Scott's dad is a retired Marine. He and his wife are in charge of Toys for Tots in Richmond, In. We thought this would be a perfect opportunity for our two oldest boys to see how fortunate they are. We had to leave our house at 5:30 a.m. on Dec. 22nd, so we could go to the Marine Corp. club and work Toys. We had a very humbling experience and plan to work it every year (if possible) for now on. This is Frank (Scott's dad) proudly wearing his dress blues and Scott.
This is what getting up so early does to Scott. He hates having his picture taken and I warned him if he didn't take a decent picture I was posting this. He didn't seem to care, so here it is! Also he seems to have needed a razor for Christmas. 
Yes, this is what this man really looks like! Our history books must be wrong, Abe is still alive! Joshua was so excited to have his picture taken with him and wants to have a copy to show his teachers when he returns to school. (Lonnie is so used to this he was so kind to have his picture taken with the kids. He does profit from his unique look. He plays Abe Lincoln for events)
Meaghan, my baby sister, turned 18 on the 21st. We had her birthday dinner the night of the 22nd, after our return from In. It was a long day!
We celebrated Christmas with my mom and step-dad, Steve, on the 23rd. Here is a rare picture of us. My mom also hates cameras, but she did this for me! Here's my mom, me and Steve.
