Thanksgiving 2006
For Thanksgiving this year, Tom and I invited his parents and sister to join us at our place this year, and they took us up on the offer. It was great to have tom's sister, Lynnette, here too since she often can't get work off. We had a wonderful meal, and I made a carmel pear pie that was so delicious.
We were able to play rummikub together. Although, Lynnette kept winning most of time.We did have an enjoyable time together, and I'm so thankful for the holidays we can share together.
I can't help but miss my parents too. It's hard not having them here for the holidays. So, parents if you are reading this message....we love you and missed you at Thanksgiving. And we can't wait 'til you are home to share some of the holidays with us in the future. Love you!!!! (ps. hope your turkey from germany turned out well!)

It's already November...
It's unbelievable that Thanksgiving Break is almost upon us. Time is going by rather quickly.
As far as how is life going? Tom just had mid-terms not too long ago and did pretty well. Right now I'm sitting in the science building doing internet while Tom is studying in the anatomy lab. He has a test on Wednesday.
I do have some good news and bad news to share. Monday Tom and I were having a blast playing some volleyball with some of Tom's classmates, when Tom landed on another person's foot (while jumping at the net) and twisted his ankle. (I'm sure that Mike or Brent would have some good advice for the "PT to be" about how to take care of that ankle after having such injuries at the beginning of this year. Tom has decided that he WILL NOT play basketball intramurals and I was glad to hear that after such a rough season last year in the church league games. All those from Bethany will understand what I'm talking about.) So, he's done playing sports for a while.
On the other hand, I had good news this week as the Lord provided a job for me at Younkers working in the shoe department for the Holidays. So, that should help the finances out a little. The Lord has been good to us...providing what we need. Many of you know all too well about paying for school and everything else on what seems like so little. Do any of you have some great stories about how God provided your needs miraculously?
