Marshall, Texas

This week, my family and I came to Marshall, Texas.  About 40 minutes outside of Shreveport, Texas.  My mom's dad's mother lives out here, right next door to a daughter of her's.  Which at her age is wonderful.  My brother, mother, father, dog-bear, and I came in our Jeep and it took about 3 1/2 hours.  When we arrived to Shreveport, we were an hour or two early so my mother called my 2nd cousin, Chris.  We went to Chili's, then Target, next Starbucks, and finally after a while we came to my great- grandmother's house.  We (my cousin, mom, and I) played Scrabble.  At the same time we were watching The Sound Of Music.  At about 10:30, my brother and I went to bed.  This morning when we awakened, we had waffles with blueberries.  After that I went outside to play with the Beard Man.  We played hide- and- seek and I didn't just run around trying to "find" him, he ran around (surprisingly) to find me.  When I came back inside, my Aunt Sue, who lives next door, was talking to my mother.  My Aunt Sue asked if we would like to see a movie. Our reply was yes.  We arrived to the theatre, which is so much different from the Flower Mound ones. This one had 8 theatre screens. 8. Anyway, she asked if we wanted to see The Water Horse.  Well once again we replied with yes.  If you liked Eragon, you will like this. It seems as if it is a Disney movie, but I'm almost certain that it's not.  It's an okay movie for a twelve year old, but for a 5, 6, or 7 year old it would be much better for that age group than mine. I hope to be back before school because I want to talk to some friends before school. Have Happy New Year.

In the small dorf that I work in here in Germany, there is a theater. I nearly cried when I saw that it has only one screen. And then I did cry when I realized all movies were going to be in German. It really puts a cramp on my movie going ;-)... The little things you don't think about when you move half-way around the world. I came across your blog from Honey B.'s
PS...
I do miss East Texas, and even the Flowerplex.

Yes, I am a Christian. I am a missionary, but I believe that we (if we are Christians) are all missionaries right where we are :-)
God is amazing! My walk with Him has been an incredible adventure.
I have you on my favorites and check to see if you have written anything lately. I know Honey B.- I don't know how long you have known her, but I am so very proud of her. I enjoy you blog - please continue. God uses the smallest investment we give Him.
