Christmas eve...
This afternoon me and Jeremy will load Jakob up and drive to Eufala to my grandpa's house. Tomorrow really early we'll wake up and head to Georgia. Uncle Jim's funeral is tomorrow morning at 10:30. I'm gonna try to make it back in town on Thursday so that we can have our traditional present exchange at Jeremy's parents house Thursday night, but we will see. There will be alot of family at the funeral that have never met Jakob so I can't just rush out afterwards. Please pray for my dad, my Aunt Betty has asked him to speak at the funeral. I know it will be emotional for him, just pray God will direct him in what to say. We are all doing alot better here, knowing that Uncle Jim is out of pain and in Heaven with Jesus. There are no bad memories with him, and no regrets about the way he lived his life. Isn't that how we should all try to leave this world? Thursday night we're supposed to get alot of heavy rain here in Northwest Florida, so if you think about it please pray for our safety on the road. I love you all and hope you have a great Christmas eve, and a Wonderful Christmas. Thank-you God that you sent your only son to earth to die for us!
I will post Christmas pictures later!

Hey honey, I will be praying for you all. I know that God's grace will precede you and make a smooth path for you in the next day.
It is nice to know that when someone passes there are no hard feelings, bad memories, or regrets. That's how I felt about Nanny as well. Also, it made me realize what a legacy of love that she left and made me want to love more deeply as well.
Love you honey and hope you have a Merry Christmas!!
