Happy Thanksgiving!
We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! We are thankful for so many things on this Thanksgiving...we are thankful that Christ died on the cross for our sins, so that we could have a personal relationship with Him, and live with our God forever!! We are very thankful for each other, our family, and friends. We are also thankful for our cat Charlie!
Our Thanksgiving prayer: God, thank you for being our Savior. Thank you for providing for us, for filling our deepest need, and for being our closest friend. We praise you for Your goodness. We pray that this whole world would see your greatness and praise Your name. We love you, James and Lea.
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His love endures forever. Psalm 136:1

Baylor, and Lea
We got accepted to Baylor last night - more here.
But what I would like to talk about on this blog is less about Baylor, and more about how much I love my amazing wife! As you know, we had our anniversary trip to San Fran, and then she took a short trip to Nebraska. Well, she got back last Wednesday night but then was gone Friday night and Saturday day for a conference with my mom and grandma. I missed her so much.
Last night, I didn't open the Baylor letter til she got home cause I wanted her to do it, but the thing is, I was more excited about her being home and being able to hug her and be around her than I was about the letter from Baylor. Don't get me wrong, the Baylor thing was great news, and a blessing from God, and I'm really excited about it NOW, but last night all I wanted was to cuddle with my wonderful sweetie.
I'm a lucky guy! Love you hon.

In at Duke!
We got our first acceptance yesterday (if you are wondering, Lea is not applying to law school, but I say "we" because it is most definitely a joint effort - she has been an amazing encouragement and help every step of the way). Anyway, we're in at Duke Law School. Now because admissions people could conceivably visit this website at some point, I will not be offering much in the way of personal opinions about any law schools, at least not for quite some time!
So I will simply say that Duke is an outstanding law school, tied for 10th in the country, and it is an honor and a blessing from God to get accepted.
If you would like to keep track of where we've applied and get accepted - you will notice a little section on the right of my blog that says "Law School." The schools are in order of their ranking according to U.S. News and World Report and do not indicate our personal preferences toward schools.
Gosh, all these disclaimers I'm sounding like a lawyer already.

1 year!
So November 4 was our one-year anniversary!
We celebrated with a 4-day trip to San Francisco, and had a fantastic time. Lea just left this morning to Nebraska for a few days - gonna have some fun girl time with her sisters and hang out with the family. Originally we thought this would give me some time to finish any law school apps I needed to send in, etc. But I finished them all so I'm getting lonely for my sweetie already! I know...I did say she just left this morning...but it was really early this morning so it's been almost a day already. Well, alright, maybe not quite a whole day yet, hehe. That's ok, she'll be home soon and maybe she'll bring back some more of her dad's famous salsa, right honey? :-) Anywho - enjoy the pics!

pictures galore
Hi everyone - we've got lots of new pictures! We went to the Bebo Norman and Shane & Shane concert, we went trick-or-treating with our niece and nephew, and we went on a diabetes walk...all in the last couple weeks. Hmmm, maybe that's why we have colds now! haha
So here are all the pics! Enjoy.
