.it is finished. (for now!).

I am still here! Sorry things have been crazy finishing up school and preparing for our Christmas travels, which you will hear about starting tomorrow!... BUT in bigger news, Andrew graduated from Southeastern on Friday morning!!! WOOHOOO... So he now has his Masters of Divinity with a concentration in Apologetics and Biblical Languages (96 hour masters)...
He is the blur going across the stage...Man, we are so thankful for the 2 1/2 years that Andrew had at Southeastern. He has learned so much and we have been so blessed in our time living here. So now what?? That had been the question all semester, what is next?... Well, now we know, Andrew is the new campus pastor for our Saturday night service at our church and still doing the young professionals as well.. this is a HUGE blessing and an answer to prayer. Andrew and I have talked a lot over the past weeks of how neat it has been to see how the Lord has guided us every step of the way, from moving to NC and getting involved with our church and then now to him working full time at the church.. We serve such an INCREDIBLE God... He has provided for us every step of the way and given us wisdom in the decisions that we have made... we are so GRATEFUL..
The weather was nasty on graduation day, so one of our precious friends came to the house to watch hattiejo for us!..

Andrew,
I am SO proud of you! You did an amazing job this whole time... It seems to be a whirlwind. You always worked hard and did your best and all that hard work has paid off. I know this last semester was tough with a baby coming right at the beginning and you continuing to work and go to school full time, but you survived! You are amazing!!!! I love you!
