It has been a few days...

Sorry I have been AWOL (like that use of Army terminology?). When Nanny and I got home from the mountains on Sunday it has been non-stop craziness. Work has been crazy and then I go straight from work to home to check the mail and then from home to Nanny's to hang out since Karmen and Matt are out of town.

I have recieved several letters from Zach since I arrived back in Birmingham. Here is the rundown of the most important things...

*He is down to 226 pounds.

*He was one of 5 squad leaders chosen.

*He is working his hiney off and he is proud to be recognized for his hard work (being chosen as a squad leader).

*He is ready to come home for Christmas and he is counting down the days (13!!!).

*He has a little bit of a cold from being out in the cold weather...

Life is much different without him here and it is so hard not knowing what he is doing or how he is... I am hoping he can call on Sunday, Thanksgiving day was the last time I talk to him!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Keep praying for my friend's family, pray for Karmen, Matt, and Ava and Matt's family as they travel home from Disney on Sunday, and keep me and Zach in your prayers! Thanks!
