Today was my wife’s last day of teaching. During lunch, I went up to the school to help her move all of her stuff out of her classroom. She’s really excited about having some time to get ready for Caleb and also have a little time to relax.

For those of you who don’t know Mary Beth, she’s an avid reader. Over the past year and a half, she’s constantly been reading books that she had to read, either for grad-school or in preparing for teaching. Now, she’s really excited to be able to read anything she wants. So, for all of you relatives and friends that don’t know what to get her for Christmas, look no further than Barnes & Noble…

Speaking of Christmas…I’m starting to get really excited! The office is starting to get a little quieter as everyone begins to take the rest of their vacation for the year. I can almost hear the Christmas clock ticking as we count down the last 10 days before presents, family, food, and fun. My wife and I are heading up to Gravette, AR in a week to spend a few days with my mom’s side of the family. It’s always fun to go see my grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles out in the country. I’m sure there will be plenty of four-wheelin’ and dirt bike ridin’ to go around.

Drop me a note and let me know what you’re planning to do for Christmas…
