Let's hit the road after all

We're glad to be feeling better!!! Just in time for New Years. We weren't able to go to Dallas but Amy and her family invited us to come down to Port A to celebrate with them. Since the drive was only 2 hours, we went! We had a great time. We got there and went driving around to scope out our plan for the night. We went to the liquor store and got some goodies. Then, we went to eat dinner at Virginia's. It was delicious. After dinner we loaded up the truck and went out to the beach. It was cold and very, very, VERY, windy. Mike and Nathan made a fire and we set up our lawn chairs and tried to warm up all the while sand was in our eyes, mouth, shoes, socks, pockets...everywhere! Amy and I had to wear our sunglasses because the wind was so strong and the sand was making us miserable. After a while, the fire was perfect! We were warm and we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves and our spiced hot wine. The clock struck midnight and we cheered for 2008. A new year! Time for new beginnings. New adventures. New blessings. We are so thankful to God for Amy's healing. She's totally cancer free and that, in addition to the new year, was a reason to celebrate.
