Highlights

"This guy I have like on and off again since grade school did just get out of the seminary." Say what? No, that is not a line I said but rather a line a friend of mine said last night when I was talking to her on the phone. I promised I would not give her name, but I at least wanted you all to get to enjoy that line as much as I did.

Speaking of things I enjoyed, the Torres family thanksgiving was amazing. Those two make such good hosts and are so very blessed, it is an honor to be in their home. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about my buddy Ford hosted me for thanksgiving once again this year and it was wonderful.

As for what we did when we were there I can't really tell you to much about it yet, but I can fill you in, in a few months. You might want to read my other buddies Pat's blog about our football game that we played. You could also read more about the weekend at Chris's blog, but he never updates it so any news about thanksgiving on their would be last years.

In other news I made an Advent wreath. I cut out paper strips of brown and green for the wreath. Hole punched red paper for some little berries. Got purple and pink paper out for candles. I even cut four little flames out that I can tape on as we move through Advent. It looks like a 4th grade art project which is way better then what I was thinking it would turn out to look like. I will try to remember to post a pic. It is hanging on my door to my apartment. I thought it would be the nicest way to remind the person beside me that Advent comes before Christmas.

Keep up the fight

Hope you had a happy St. Andrew's Day; wish I'd remembered it was your feast day, too.

I also made an Advent wreath last week. The Advent Bush Tonia had seen better days.
