I know this is a terribly belated Christmas greeting and I am even late on the new year thing, but I have just been delighted being home and with my family.  I've loathed the idea of being online for more than five minutes, let alone writing! 
  Before some of you start thinking that I quit my missions trip early and will not be returning to Africa, let me inform you that with AIM we are given a four week break over the Christmas holiday to come home.  So I have been back in Kentucky for the last few weeks and will be returning to Swaziland on the 14th of January.
  It has been so wonderful being home with my whole family.  We had a great Christmas and my Grandparents and Uncle came down to celebrate.  I was able to be a part of my church's Christmas program in which I was a Wise Man in our live "Walk through Bethlehem".  I've played lots of football and volleyball with my brothers and sisters and friends  and even played out in our first snow of the year.
