Cat pictures and Brian's job
Hey guys, it's Brian. First some lovely pictures of the boys.
We like Marie's new bed
It's really comfortable
Her dog is another story
Ahhh, home again
It's nice to be able to sleep with a friend
No, daddy. It's UP, DOWN, A, B, X, Y, not Y, X
I'm ready for my bath
Yay! Charmin bag
Posing for the camera
And know on to the news.
We really enjoyed being able to be back home for so long. It was a welcome refreshment. If we didn't get to see you, we're sorry. We'll make sure to catch you some other time. Thanks to our family for putting up for us for so long.
Now the real news. As some of you may know, I've been having a lot of trouble with my job recently. I've gotten in trouble a few times (nothing major) as well as me and my superiors have disagreed on a few things. We've prayed for a solution for some time now, and for better or worse, God has decided to answer our prayers. On Wed, Jan 14, 2008, I was called into my commanders office and handed discharge paperwork. It is a General discharge, under honorable conditions, for those of you who know what that means (Google can be very helpful if you don't). We're in the process of finding out what all benefits I will retain as I go to my outprocess appointments. We plan to stay in Georgia so that Jeanette can finish her schooling, so I'm currently looking at job opportunities that will allow us to survive till then. I have been told that it will be the end of this month or the beginning of next month when the paperwork will be completed and I will officially be out of the Air Force. We know that God will take care of us and we thank all of you for all past and future prayers for us. We are both excited and anxious about the coming days. Hope is springing anew in my life, and we cannot wait to see where it may lead. And though we do not know what God has planned, we joyfully wait to see it come to fruition, and will praise the day that it does.

Joyeux Noël!
Hi, Guys!
No pictures right now. We're not avid picture takers yet. Maybe when we have kids...anyway, this Christmas has been great. We've gotten to visit with both sides of the family for a week each, and we're looking forward to going to Austin for New Year's to see my best friend, Amanda. And while the economy is the worst it's been since WWII (this was reported on some news channel), my side of the family has been blessed by the presence of my brother at Christmastime. His story is a long one but one filled with many blessings.
By the way, if you've tried to call Brian lately, he now has a phone that works.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
Love,
Jeanette (and Brian)

Christmas Survey
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Totally love wrapping presents. They definitely look like a five-year old did it, but I still love it.
2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial. Real all the way! But, I pretty much have to have a fake one, b/c of my allergies.
3. When do you put up the tree? Whenever I have time and feel like.
4. When do you take the tree down? Before I have to go back to school. Usually after New Year's.
5. Do you like eggnog? Yes, but it's so bad for you.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? Well, there was there this air brush thing.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Family members that I don't talk to much.
8. Easiest person to buy for? My mom. She's always so happy to get any present.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? No.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? I've never done this. Probably b/c my mom never did. Mostly, cuz I'm cheap and low on time.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I always, always, always hated getting clothes. PJ's, socks, school clothes. And I could totally tell before I unwrapped them because I shook everything under the tree before Christmas morning.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Home Alone, baby!
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Black Friday, if I can, but this year, we're waiting til we get to Texas.
13. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Probably.
14. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Chocolate
15. Lights on the tree? No. Candles.What am I stupid? Candles stopped being used b/c they were a serious fire hazard. Colored lights, please.
16. Favorite Christmas song? Never ask a musician what their favorite any kind of song is.
17. Do you travel at Christmas or stay home? Unfortunately, we'll be travelling, but at least we'll be in Texas for a long time.
18. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? Yes
19. Angel on the tree top or a star? Angel. We've had the same one for the Styron tree since I can remember.
20. Open the presents Christmas Eve or Christmas morning? We go to, like, three Christmases, which is awesome, but it always varies. However, I always want to open on Christmas Eve, but when I do, I'm completely sad on Christmas morning. Nothing to look forward to!
21. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Yeah, stress, but usually due to a major Christmas concert I have to pull off or finals.
22. Favorite ornament theme or color? Anything Hallmark is pretty fun. My tree is probably always going to be a hot mess. Rarely, did any of our Christmas trees look Martha Stewart. It was all about homemade ornaments, tacky tinsel and Jim and me determing everything.
23. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Turkey and dressing. Kinda boring that way. Oh, and chocolate pie.
24. What do you want for Christmas this year? Guitar Hero and some tennis shoes.
25. Who is most likely to respond to this? No idea.

GOING CRAZY!
#1 Michelle on Biggest Loser is awesome!
#2 I'm going crazy! I have to make it through Friday. I am 2 papers and 1 presentation away from freedom and Christmas shopping. That's right, people, I have done no Christmas shopping because of school. Also, as you know, I have not updated this blog. Something tells me I won't be updating it much until May 2010 (yeah, I'll have my Master's!).
Anyway, Merry Christmas! We will be out of town from around December 16th to January 6th, so if you don't see us, we're in Texas!

New Job at Ingleside Village Pizza (the new location)
For the past 2.5 months, I have been working at Moe's. It's been honest work, but it's definitely hard to go back to making not much more than you did at 16. The other day, God led me right into a job that is much better for me-more money for the same effort, within walking distance of the Townsend School of Music (Mercer Music Building), groovy atmosphere, that's right, I said groovy. If you haven't already tried the original Ingleside Village Pizza, you really need to. As a pizza connoisseur, my recommendation carries the greatest influence (in my head).
Check it out! And remember, I'm at the :
* New Location * 1635 Montpelier Ave. Macon, GA 478-743-4113
Monday-Closed (so awesome!)
Tuesday-Saturday 11-9

First Day of School
Hi, People,
I know that I didn't post these pictures close enough to August 18th (the actual first day of school), but here they are:
You can't go to school without a cool lunch bag (Dora, HSM and SpongeBob are sooo last year).
But anyway, here I am smiling...actually excited to be going back. Check back with me at midterms:)
