Well, we left an hour earlier than we'd originally planned. At 3:30AM, we left the church headed for the airport. A drive that should normally take around an hour took almost TWO hours! The van wouldn't shift properly and never got out of third gear! We drove 40-45 all the way!! So while we didn't need to leave early for the weather, because the roads were fine, it's a good thing we left early or we may have been late for our flight because of the van!!

The view of the sunrise from the window of the plane. Headed to Honduras!!

Once we got settled in our hotel, we went to the little 24-hour mini-mart located there. I thougtht these cereal boxes were cool.

Getting nervous about our flight tomorrow! We are supposed to take off around 6 am from Little Rock! Hope we are able to make it to the airport and that our flight leaves as scheduled!!

This is what happened when I tried to heat a piece of already cooked frozen chicken. I heard a big 'POP' after about a minute of cooking and this is what I saw when I opened the microwave door!

All of my Gma Polly's great-grandkids!

We had a Christmas Eve Part Two this year since Daniel and family weren't able to come home until now. Worked out well, though. We got to give Gma this pic for Christmas! The only other one we tried to do was when the girls were still babies and NO ONE was smiling in the pic but Gma Polly!! This one is MUCH better! :)

Yeah, I know! So much for not going more than 2 weeks without posting! Good thing I didn't make it a RESOLUTION... then I'd really feel like a loser! :) LOL I was taking my pics and getting them ready... just didn't get them loaded before the missions trip... and then it took me a while to get all those together! Hopefully, I'll be caught up by tomorrow though!

Well, I think this is officially the first project I've ever started that I've completed! Yeah, me!

Several people have asked if I'm going to keep going on my Pic-A-Day blog. And since it's pretty much become a way of life for me - I think I'll continue it. Hopefully, I'll get better at posting in a TIMELY manner and not get a month behind this year. That will be my 2008 goal - get no more than 14 days behind on my posting. Why 14 days? Because I already know I'll be out of the country for 8 days in January and I'm sure it will take me a few days to get through all the pics and get them posted! :) Trying to be reasonable in my goal setting!

So . . . here goes. . . Pic-A-Day 2008

My plans for New Year's Day were to wake up and get straight in Pa's blue chair and watch the Razorback game with my Gma. HOWEVER, that was a really sad game. . . so I decided to take a pic of the Florida/Michigan game instead. THAT was more like a Bowl Game should be!! My Gma cooked up biscuits and sausage for breakfast and then for a lunch we had blackeyed peas, squash, yams, corn, ham, and cornbread. My Gma makes the best cornbread in the world! I've watched her make it over and over and I've tried to make it several times. . . but no one came make cornbread like my Gma Polly!

Yes, I had a WILD New Year's Eve. Jackson and I spent the night with my Gma Polly. (Gerald had to work a double shift so he went in to work at 3pm and didn't get home until 7am.) Jackson fell asleep on the couch about 7:30 and Gma and I stayed up until about 1:30 playing dominoes. Two wild and crazy girls, I know!! :) Best New Year's Eve I've had in a long time!
