the past month or so

Thanksgiving in Prague

My Christmas regulars- a paper crown and jello



I've found that I'm terrible at remembering to take pictures! In the past month I've also gone home for a week, been in a wedding while I was there, gone to our Winter Conference, actually hung out with Petra (not just her dad), and been sledding a few times. Next time I try to do a picture summary, I'll steal a few from my teammates!

But Christmas in Slovakia was great, and there's still lots to look forward to:
January 8-11 Slovakia staff conference
January 19-25 STINT Mid-year conference in Spain
Jan 25- Feb 2- Traveling through Geneva, Paris, and London
February- University classes start again
March- My whole family comes to visit!

I hope you had a great Christmas in Slovakia...we sure did miss you up at the lake! Check out the Christmas pics on mine and Kristen's blog, if you haven't done so already.

So glad for an update. Sounds like you had a great Christmas (even though you weren't with us)--we missed you. But I see you still have a paper crown!! Your Christmas tree looks great!! Glad things are going well!!
