Well Tara and Dave came home on November 16th. Dawn & Vic put on a fantastic meal at Essenhous. The wedding was beautiful. I was struck by how thin Tara has gotten. Steve really enjoyed Dave's family especially Dave's brother. The two have similiar personalities.I saw the pictures today and they are fantastic.I'm thankful today for so many things. Tara and Dave's happiness with their lives in Colorado, Em's pregnancy, Riss and turning out to be such a good kid, my new job. The list grows and grows. I'm already crying at the thought of Tara and Dave leaving but they'll be back in a month. I taught my last class at church last night. I'm thankful for the opportunity to meet so many nice people through that experience. It is a good day to live MacDougal. Isn't it?

Well I do not believe this week could get a whole lot better!!!!! I got the job at East House as Director of Crossroads residential services. That means I have to drive to the city but I think It's time I put on my big girl panties and did it. The people seem fantastic!!!! Then Em called this morning to say she is expecting .Yeah!!!!!! We figure she's due around the Fourth of July which was my due date for her. I'm sooooooooo excited!!! Tara and Dave come home in 12 days for the wedding. Marissa and I seem to have bonded again. I mean seriously if I could freeze a time frame this next couple of weeks would have to be it. I didn't even say "Rabbit, Rabbit" this month. Wow!!!! It truly is a good day to live MacDougal!!!!!
