Nicole made Dean’s List in her second-to-last semester at UGA. This earned her a prize from her mom and dad– a U2 iPod. Danny is finishing his final year of high school. He has applied to Notre Dame and Spring Hill. He will be applying to several (secular) Georgia colleges in the next few weeks. We had plenty of fall athletics with Kelly and Mary Claire playing soccer, Danny playing baseball, and most recently, Claire starting up basketball. Kelly entertained us with her violin at her Christmas orchestra concert.

Jeb and Danny installed a new range and microwave for Kathy. This included installing a new gas line. You can read about their adventures with gas and electricity on mac.fiveforks.com. Kathy is very excited and did a lot of Christmas cooking.

Kathy and Danny are both planning a trip to Jamaica to work with Father Ho Lung’s Missionaries of the Poor. They will be gone 5 days in early February, returning just in time for Mary Claire’s 10th birthday.
