Ever so often, I will wake up way too early and this morning was one of those mornings. I awoke around 4:30AM and after 30 minutes of tossing and turning I just said, what the heck and got up. So now, I've checked my email and written a few notes and am on my second cup of coffee. It will be a LONNNNNNGGGG day!
Much happening today at our store with a employee Thanksgiving dinner, a holiday readiness check by our district staff and obviously allot of business with the holiday on 7 days away. We are ready and all should go quite smoothly.
I'm excited that Trey has decided to referee some basketball this year with the same group that I work with. I wish I had started as young as he has and could have seen how far I could have gone. I love the game and I love the kids, but I just can't hardly keep up with the young legs anymore. He's working some scrimmages this evening and I am looking forward to going to watch him work.
Appears Debbie and Jennifer have most of the Christmas deco up. I got up this morning to find the tree decorated. Appears the girls did a much better job with it than Trey and I did last year. Anyway, time for a shower and a shave!

It's Beginning To Look....
Yep....it's beginning to look allot like the holidays around here. Last night, I took my butt up the attic stairway and dropped all our Christmas deco paraphernalia down to Trey. Now, it's just kind of hanging out in the family room. We did get it all unpacked and I did get the Christmas tree put together while I've been off today.
I look forward to this time of year more than anything else. Sure, it's our busiest time at the store and we work awfully hard....but, it's actually fun in a weird sort of way. I can attest to coming home dead tired everyday, but I'm always anxious to tackle it again the next day.
Hard to believe the year is almost gone. So much has happened in 2008 and we have been blessed in multiple ways. We will celebrate Christmas differently this year as Debbie and I will focus more on Tripp and Makinley. We will still enjoy our children, but it is time that they started developing their own traditions.
Debbie and I have a new "daughter" as we have "adopted" a little girl from Zambia. Her name is Ostridah and she turned 4 years old in September. We look forward to watching her grow up and being a vehicle that God uses to share Christ with her. Please covenant with us to pary for Ostridah.
