Some Exciting Changes

The last week has been crazy with the Thanksgiving Holiday. It has been a week since I posted, but I do have some news:

(1) Thanksgiving - I was able to participate in my first evening service as a pastor. Members of both congregations gathered together to take Communion, greet one another and give thanks to God for all He provides. We also hosted the Droste Thanksgiving at our home. My Dad cooked the prime rib and I cooked all the fixings. My Mom got a nice break this year :-D. Weaver enjoyed her first Thanksgiving as well!

(2) Second Car -
Last night, Christa and I bought a 2003 Ford Escape XLT. The Firebird is not a 12-month car, so we needed something reliable in the winter. We also wanted something that we could transport Weaver in. So, we decided on this SUV. The gas mileage is not the best, but it is in excellent condition and runs very well. We are thankful to have two vehicles that we can both use all year.

(3) Weaver Maturing -
On Monday and today, our alarm clock actually woke us up! Weaver is sleeping past 6:00AM. Now we can to be the ones waking her up. This is a pleasant change. This is the next step in getting into a nice daily routine for the three of us. She has also gone almost a week without any household "accidents." Hopefully this lasts...and I didn't curse it. ;)
