Happenings...

Just a quick hello to friends and family... First of all THANK YOU to everyone who came to the Chili Cook-off a couple of weeks ago. We raised $130 for Second Harvest and collected t-shirts and socks for RITI. This is sure to become an annual event in the fall.

I won't go into detail here, but we were alerted recently by MLK that Brandon's grades were slipping. Suffice it to say that he is now suffering through the consequences of not being organized and not studying or doing homework. I think that we have his attention now. Hopefully we have constructively altered his study habits so that his semester grades will not be in the basement.

The next few weeks are going to be crazy as we kick off wrestling season with Brandon, and head full-tilt into the Christmas holidays. Wrestling takes up at least 2 nights during the week, and most Fridays and Saturdays. I'm trying to get my "life" organized and do things like get the Christmas Card list updated (it would help if you people would quit moving!) and get calendars up to date so we know which way we are going...

We leave for England on Dec 27 and return on Jan 5 - we're spending New Years in London with the Framptons. We can't wait to see them and are excited and blessed to have the opportunity to take this trip. It has taken some sacrifice, but will be well worth the trip.

The Frampton's are eagerly awaiting the visit from the Robinson clan. We are not sure that they will all fit in our house or cars but I hear that they have gotten a hotel for the night they are here. We are planning to sabotage Lee's carefully laid itinerary with some good old English pub visiting. We are trying to find a place New Year's Eve but it is way too expensive in London. We may have to get some fish and chips and eat in!!

Hurry up and get here guys!!
