Merry Christmas!

You're probably thinking I'm a little late. Christmas was several weeks ago, right? Well, you may remember that we were still in the middle of our extended retreat in Dallas over the holidays. Our kids were kind enough to put our Christmas tree up before we came home, and as we settled in to our new routine, we picked a date for our family Christmas celebration. That date was yesterday. We had Christmas and exchanged presents with our kids and grandkids. Then some more of Becky's family joined us for a "Christmas" dinner. And a good time was had by all!

As far as recovery goes, we're still on that road. Progress continues. Becky's biggest challenge is still her nausea and lack of appetite. Although both seem slightly better on most days, the progress on that front is slow. She is getting stronger and more steady on her feet though, so that's a big plus.

It was also my first week back in the office at work since October. I wasn't able to get in a full 40 hours, but Becky and I are both making adjustments. We're also getting a little help with transportation. The road has not been easy and we don't expect the rest of the journey be short, but we feel like we're still headed in the right direction.

Thanks again to everyone for your continued support and prayers! They are felt and appreciated!
