The world didn’t end, Christmas is over, New Years is past, turned another year older yesterday, and big changes in 2013!

On Sunday, Nick leaves for college on a full football scholarship to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Go Rajun Cajuns!!! Go Nick!

Betsy returned from her semester in London and left this morning to return to college. She’s such a sweetie-pie!

And Jake was supposed to be going back to college to finish his last semester, but got a call from the Houston Texans. He’s been signed! Root for the Texans on Sunday!

We had a lot of fun over the holidays.

And enjoyed a lovely Christmas at St. James Anglican Church.

But now, it’s back to work and on to exciting changes in our lives. For me: second novel will be sent to the agent before the weekend is over, and I’ll make a few edits to the first, then delve into the third. With the kids busy with their lives, I’m settling down to some serious writing. My goal is to write a lot of books in 2013! The next few weeks will be busy with novel work and probably won’t blog much!

Wishing everyone a blessed 2013!
