College visit...

Boy, am I glad this weekend is over! We took Sarah down to Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, TN. We were on the road a total of about 18 hours from Friday to Sunday evening. She was invited down for a senior session where they had a total of four seniors warm up and play with some of their volleyball team members. They told her that they had had a session last weekend and there was a girl there that was 6'2" that played the same positions as Sarah. They said they were still interested in recruiting her but didn't know how much money they would be able to offer her. One hang up is the distance. It takes about 7-8 hours to get there, one way, depending on the traffic and weather. She has had several other colleges contact her so we will be doing more visits. We stayed at Richie & Dawn's house while down there. It helped break up the trip a bit so we weren't driving a full 7 or more hours at a time. It also helped save money!!

How do you like my swan picture? I took it this past Friday morning on Waterford Rd. by Kokosing Construction. I am putting them on some Christmas cards, which will be for sale if anyone wants them ($10 for 10). They are framed in a blue frame with blue pine, pine cone and snow in one corner. Saying on inside "It was as if nature paused to take a moment of silence softly wishing for peace on earth...Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year!" The front of the card has a spray of fine glitter.

Blessings...
