New Year’s Reception
30 December 2007 at 6:48 pm (Army, Family)
This past Friday, my Love and I went to my Battalion Commander’s house for an early New Year’s/End-of-Year reception. The occasion was quite formal seeing that we wore our Dress Blue’s. We had a nice time and enjoyed the party. It was quite interesting being the Chaplain at the party since my Branch colors are different than the rest of the Battalion. I clearly stuck out, but that is not really anything new.
After the party, My Love and I went down to Austin and had a night out without the kiddos. We ate at a favorite restaurant and then stayed in a nice hotel. It was simply wonderful, and I must say that I planned a fairly romantic evening. For those of you who know me that was an accomplishment.
As the year comes to an end, I truly love where the Lord has us and I love my job. The Lord has blessed us beyond measure and we are thankful for His goodness and mercy. I pray that you have a great end to 2007 and a happy beginning to 2008.

Congratulations on the new job and for you and the family finding your way back to Crusader country! I was ordained last May and I’m looking forward starting my first full-time ministry position soon.

Gpa and Gma loved your and your Sweetheart’s blogs so much and just looked at the latest last week. Since they mentioned how much it meant to them, I took time to reread also. Thank you for serving God. I pray for you and your family daily. I’ve missed you guys so much while you’ve been away this week.
