I'm not a mathematician but I am pretty sure (and my nerves will attest) that we just spent 15 hours in the car together. Wow. That's a lot when you have two children who are potty-training, two extroverts, two introverts, a compact car, and too much stuff.

I love my family and it was wonderful to get to see everyone. At the end of the holidays, I can say if I had to do it all over again for and with the same people I wouldn't hesitate.

Let me add one closing thought, though. This year, as I did last year, I resolve to continue to pray about a way to make it more about JESUS and less about eating, shopping, gifting, etc!

Sarah Beth,
I spent an hour after my 1 hour "work out" at the sports plex on the "Seniors Center computer".

Finally I was ale to see some of the pictures and information about you , my angel and my sweet family that is in SOUTH CAROLINA!
It was a blessing to me.
