going home

I’m getting everything ready to hit the road early tomorrow morning.  I can’t wait for the fun times in the car with a good friend, uninterrupted knitting time, and lots of reading waiting to be done.  Maybe even some goofy Relient K singalongs.  I can’t wait to see my family and spend some precious weeks at home with them.  I can’t wait to do some photoshoots with my talented sisters and cook lots of new recipes with them.  I can’t wait to see old church friends and pick up the threads of good friendships once more.  I can’t wait to head back to a place that knows how winter is supposed  to feel [it was 70 degrees in Arkansas today!] and go sledding and for walks in the snow.   I’m going home.

p.s. — I’m really enjoying the Virtual Advent Wreath over at The Rabbit Room blog — one of Andrew Peterson’s haunts.
