Celebrations & Goodbyes

Sadly, we had to say goodbye to our oldest cat, Quiet. He lived to be 18 years old and will be missed, 9/29/05 - 12/10/23. The next day, Julia arrived home, and it was good to be together. Mom came with us to Ford's Theater for A Christmas Carol; we opened presents Saturday morning (16th) and then had a goodbye party Saturday night with the family. Steven's dad has been in the hospital, so we are hoping it gets sorted out in the best interest of Richard and where he will be cared for in the future. :(

Julia left Monday mid-day. She flew from DC to Houston, Houston to Auckland, and then Auckland to Christchurch. But... she made it--33 hours or so of travel! Check out her red Antarctica jacket. Now that she is in New Zealand (awaiting to board the boat on Dec. 26th with the South Koreans), she is super excited. Praying for her safety, health, and good weather.
