That City Air

This is just a quick note to say that our new year is going good. Last Wednesday we joined the remnant of married students at the student lounge to play some games and watch the ball drop. We arrived at about 9:30 and had fun for a couple hours. At 11:50 Katie and I both felt we had reached our limit, we were very tired and our contacts were bothering us so we headed home. We got home just in time to watch the ball drop then trudged upstairs to pass out it bed. This break has been great and relaxing but I'm now looking forward to getting back to a regular schedule.

Sunday, after morning service, we took a day trip to Charleston. We had to pick up a friend from the airport at 10 PM so we just decided to arrive early and see the sights. It was so refreshing to see the city. Charleston has it's share of large buildings and corporate offices but it is modest in size. It has that city air that I've come to miss but isn't too big to be overwhelming. We shopped, shopped, ate, shopped and shopped again, then it was time to pick up our friend Drew. The little one terminal airport broke it's only conveyor belt for the baggage so we waited an extra hour for Drew to receive his luggage before we could leave. We had a great day and weren't at all worried about getting home late because we took off on Monday.

This is the last full week before school starts. We are getting some extra hours in at work and enjoying our time at home before i have to hit the books again. Keep us in your prayers as we embark on a new semester, i hope that this one goes as good and even better than the former.
