Christmas!!

Justin and I went back home to Florida for Christmas!!
We left on Thursday night and got there Friday moring at 6:30am. Mom was ready with her cheese grits, eggs, bacon, and orange juice!! We ate then went to bed. We spent time at Mom's home and then went to the Estrada's new beautiful home in Orlando. We had a wonderful time and hated to leave the family this Saturday... We hope to come home in the spring to see everyone again. The road trip was not as bad as we thought it would be. We love you all and hope to see more family and friends in our next visit!!
Love Justin and Laura

Thanksgiving!!!











In November Justin cut off his long locks and went to Boston to meet with some professors from several universities around the world. He had a wonderful time seeing Boston Harbor and rubbing elbows with the best of the best in Biblical Languages. That next week, Justin flew in from Boston to Tallahassee, FL to meet me for Thanksgiving with our dear friends, Ben and Kelly Todd. We had such a wonderful time in Tallahassee, FL. We all ran the Turkey Trot 5K the morning of Thanksgiving and had brunch at a friend’s home. Soon we were all cooking and prepping for the fest to come that night! Saturday, we went to our very first FSU tailgate party! It was fun, fun!!

Month of October










































We have been very busy in the Month of October. We had a Costume party and I was working on the Mrs. In Ministry Retreat for the Wives of RTS. It went really well and we all had such a wonderful time! Praise the Lord!! Great fellowship and we did the book of Ruth with Laura Husband as our teacher. She was great and I learned so much from the study! I came home and asked Justin to quiz me on the book of Ruth and he was quite surprised to see how much I learned with in two days! The costume party was a BLAST! I loved seeing every one dressed up! We even carved pumpkins and watched Ghost Busters! I love that movie! We ate...and ate...and ate..!! You know I love that part! Hope you all had a wonderful month and I am looking forward to the month of November and our travels to FL!!


Much Love , Laura

This was our last time meeting with the Bible Study group. So we all went out for coffee at Cups. we had a wonderful time and fellowship with one another. Now starts the new school year for our husbands and we are gearing up to help them out during this time.

The Beach.

I flew into Orlando, FL on July-23 and went over to my home town Brandon, FL to stay with mom for 5 days. We celebrated her Birthday and then Liz and I drove over to Orlando to meet Leslie, Tiger and the kids at MGM. We had a lot of fun and wish I had more time to spend with them but they left to go home and Liz and I went back home and got ready to hit the beach!! Mom and I left on Monday and Liz joined us after work on Tuesday. Justin's parents surprised me and flew Justin in from Jackson on Thursday and we got to spend two nights together then he flew out to Washington on Saturday to attend his aunt Anna's funeral with his dad. Anna passed away the weekend before and went home to our Lord and Savor Jesus Christ. She was a wonderful Godly woman who loved the lord and she will be missed greatly. Justin is flying home today YAY!!!!! Here are some photos of my trip back home.
Love Laura :)
