Eating again? Yup, this time @Uncle Julio's...
(not a relative... a restaurant in Boca Raton ;-)

Thanksgiving - Part 3

Round 3 at Loren and Nellie Strickland (Drew's parents)' in Davie...

Thanksgiving - Part 2

Nephew Jason did a phenomenal job with the turkeys (one roasted, one deep-fried) and a great time was had by all!We topped things off with a bubbly grape juice toast of thanksgiving to God for our extended family..Tim and Kara are headed back to Atlanta as I make this entry...

Thanksgiving - Part 1

We're scheduled for three Thanksgiving meals... here's the gang for round one in Gainesville:Tim surprised us all by coming down with Kara after telling the adults he was staying in Asheville... he couldn't exactly skip the chance to meet his new cousin Harley Cooper Wright!

First Day of Thanksgiving Break

Grace and I had lunch @The Landing with these four:
Scott Grogan (pictured with his wife Rachel) was a Journeyman Missionary in '97 when I hired him to teach at the Nicaragua Christian Academy; he now teaches Computer Science at a Middle School three miles from Grace's house... Frank Zamora (pictured at his wedding with wife Chelsea) was one of the first students to graduate from NCA (Class of '99)... they also now reside in Jacksonville... lots of fun "catching up" and meeting wives & fiancee's!

Long Weekend

Grace and I had Veterans' Day off; I had class on Friday, gave tests in all my classes, then spent a big chunk of the weekend grading them with football games in the background... oh, and we did get in what the two of us decided is the last garage sale of our lives... I think we may have covered our expenses; boxed what was left for a variety of charities...Kara had a great time and is back from NY; Tim's soccer season ended with a 2-0 loss to High Point College... he is optimistic that they'll have a stronger team next fall.
