My sweet family got back to Atlanta today!\u00a0 It was a great trip to Texas for Christmas.\u00a0 We spent a lot of quality time with my parents and my brother and his family.<\/p>\n
It’s a long trip, about 1,000 miles from here to Georgetown, Texas.\u00a0 We normally take three days.\u00a0 We usually start out later on the first day, around 4 pm, then drive about 5 hours or so.\u00a0 The second day we usually go about 7 hours and then 3-4 the last.\u00a0 Not too bad!<\/p>\n
Highlight of the trip was my parent’s 50th anniversary party!\u00a0 That was great!\u00a0 I had spent hours transferring my parent’s old pictures to our photo gallery, then Ashley took the best of the photos and put them into a slide show.\u00a0 My brother Jim borrowed his company’s video projector and we showed them on a screen that the restaurant provided.\u00a0 We ate at Stagecoach Inn in Salado, Texas.\u00a0 It’s a famous place that has housed Jesse James and George Armstrong Custer to name a couple.<\/p>\n
I also preached at my Dad’s church, the Worship Place.\u00a0 I gave a 10 minute talk as if I was telling the Christmas story to kids at the mission. The congregation seemed to like it!<\/p>\n
Peace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
