He passed!

Well this week we drove to Auburn for Richard's defense! He defended on December 1 and PASSED! Richard has sent in his completed changes and gotten a "certificate of completion". He won't actually graduate till May, but at least all that is behind us. Now on to the job search.
So far in December we have gotten free tickets to a Predators game (we finally attended a winning game), hosted our first Christmas party and attended the first of many family Christmas events.
We are very excited about Christmas and being in TN this year. Lots of gifts to give and Christmas events to go to! We go for our big ultrasound on December 22. We are still wanting it to be a surprise, but we are excited to see our baby again!
On a difficult note, please keep my family in your prayers...my grandfather has been taken off of all life support and we are waiting on his departure to heaven. I will miss him dearly, but I know that he has been in a lot of pain over the years and he will be well again soon.
