Nothing says Christmas like a ballpoint pen (thanks Kara!)And... having Rachel Barham stay with us over the break.
Nothing says Christmas like a visit to the horse farm!
Nothing says Christmas like...a box of LUCKY CHARMS!
Thanks Bob & Jeannette!
Nothing says Christmas like a bunch of presents under the tree.
Nothing says Christmas quite like a box of Tic-Tacs in your stocking.
Or... Jeremy and Phil on Santa's knee.Please: no comments on that one.
Anything say Christmas quite like Christi and Laura?
Nothing says Christmas quite like this look on Mikayla's face.Caryn! What on earth did you tell her?!?
I submit to you that nothing says Christmaslike sharing a cup of eggnog with your buddy.
And, there you go. Time truly does fly when you're having fun. Or, when you're really, really busy all year.
Not much new to report this month. The fall semester finished off and it was a great one. We're looking forward to (roughly) 40 of the students returning and a bunch more "rookies" as well. Christmas was great - it really was a blessing to just be here at home this year. To not have to think about connecting flights, navigating our way through London Heathrow or Frankfurt, and taking a few days to recover from six to nine hours of jet-lag. Plus, we had snow on the ground on Christmas day. It hadn't really snowed before that and it hasn't snowed since. Nice.
The kids are more or less (more) going stir-crazy being in the house most of the time, but it is nice to just have some family time and hang out together. You'd think we'd have more of that over here, but... you'd be surprised. Always plenty going on - on campus and off.
We have a conference here in mid-January and a wedding in January as well. I'm hoping to get out to Ireland for a weekend in January and then try to do once a month out there before we move in May. Thank the Lord for new studies to listen to on the iPod!
Next semester: I'll be teaching 2Corinthians once a week for two hours and Apologetics once a week for two hours as well. Should be great.
There you go. We love you and hope that your Christmas was blessed and that 2009 is thoroughly enjoyable.
All the best in Jesus from the Foster family to you and yours!
