Quick Post...

Hey Everyone! As many of you know, we were planning on going for a trip to Texas, but never were really sure if we actually were, but then Thursday night my parents made the decision and so Friday was the day for packing and of course, cleaning! :) Saturday came, and after packing the truck topper and getting everything and everyone in the Truck, we finally left at 6:30 for a long trip down South. Yesterday morning we got into Texas and to my mom's brothers house in San Antonio, it was a long trip and after saying our quick hello's, I seriously CRASHED into bed. :) Then came Sunday, it was sad that we didn't have any kind of church service in the morning, since we were at our Uncles house, but I thought of all my dear friends in Illinois...(miss you!). Sunday we left around sometime after lunch, and made a two hour trip to our very dear friends, the Martinez's. :) And so Sunday night was full of fun and laughter, and with that comes the "long talks" of catching up with everyone, and so our talks went into part of the morning, and then finally someone said that it was time for bed. But of course, girls talk way more than guys, and so us girls stayed up until between 2:30 and 3:00.

And so here I am sitting at the computer at our friends waiting for lunch, so I thought I would update you all. :) Please keep praying for us as we make our way down to Brownsville for the Christmas Season!

I miss you all!!! :)

In Christ,

~Sierra

PS. Pictures to come soon!

I can finally say i envy your warmer weather. :D The -1 degrees up here is not the most comfortable weather to split wood in.

Have a blessed Christmas!

Emil, -25 degree windchill?!?! Wow, I think the only day that it was actually cold here was on Sunday night, I'm not sure what the temp. was, but we went for a walk with some friends and it was pretty cold! :)

Robert, thanks for updating! I can't wait till tomorrow! See ya then! :)

Jesi, Yeah, I miss you too, I miss everyone there! As I said, we didn't have any kind of service on Sunday, so it felt really odd...But then thankfully on our way down to our friends, Dad put a sermon by Joe Morcraft. :) Can't wait to see you! Love ya!

Rebecca, I CANNOT wait to see you! I think we'll be there tomorrow morning sometime! Love ya! :)

Brooke, More then you know! Yesterday we had Christmas on the beach! It was awesome! :)

Jess, How did it go in Chicago? I read Tiff's blog and it looks like y'all had an amazing time! The weather here is absolutly beautiful, I can't wait to see you and show you all the pictures I got! :)

Justin, Do you not like warm weather? But yes I do prefer it over -1 degree weather up there!

Hope you ALL had a wonderful blessed Christmas!
