It is a time of Thanksgiving indeed!

Hi everybody. I know it's been a while since we updated. We are sorry. I hope this finds each of you happy, and healthy and looking forward to Thanksgiving.

Frank is in Little Rock right now. He left yesterday morning, and should be back Thursday night. His MRI and bone marrow went well. The bone marrow biopsies are never fun, and I am still amazed after almost a year how well he handles them. He had the "new girl" today - that's always scary. But he had no complaints and said they were all laughing before it was over. He'll get the results and see Dr. Barlogie on Thursday.

We are thanking God for his progress and healing and praying for a continued remission. Frank was able to sneak off to Greenville for the night and visit with his parents. I know they enjoyed the surprise!

Jim, our brother-in-law, had another checkup the first week of November. He is also still in remission and got a good report from the doctor. We are so thankful for his health as well.

Tuesday the 18th was our 14th anniversary! We couldn't be together on Tuesday, but had a nice dinner over the weekend. We toasted to the last 14 and to the next 16!! We can attest to the fact that our "13th" year of marriage was not a superstitious "bad" year. In spite of the challenges that we faced as individuals and as a couple, it was one of the sweetest years of our marriage. We got refocused on what's really important and spent some very precious moments together.

Frank's attitude about his cancer and his never-ending, Christ-centered, positive outlook had taught me - and the kids- so much.

So, what else has kept us from making entries more often? Well, we sold our house - again! The first offer several months ago fell through, but it looks like this deal is going to stick. We are closing on Dec. 1st. In addition to that, for the last 4 weeks, I have been going to school to get my Real Estate license. With our house selling during my course, I felt like I was on a very long field trip! It's been a long time since I was in school and had to study! Let me rephrase that! It's been a long time since I was in school and chose to study!!

Anyway, I finished school today and passed all the necessary requirements.
We'll let you know how his check-up went after Thursday..........Thanksgiving's a week from tomorrow!

Psalm 100: Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! Serve the Lord with gladness;Come before His presence with singing.Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise.Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting,And His truth endures to all generations.
