Holiday Update

Just a small update for those of you who are wondering the status of everything. All is well. Dallas will start treatment the day after Christmas at Shands, which will be nice since it's so close to Tallahassee and our family in central Florida.

We'll be spending Christmas at our Grandpa and Grandma's house on the lake in Tavares; always a beautiful place to spend the holidays. Dallas and David are really enjoying spending time with all their friends that are also home for the holidays. David's girlfriend, Alice will be home from Boston next week sometime and Brittney has her last final today at TCC. Also, I'll be coming home a week early (tomorrow) to spend some much needed time with the fam.

Thank you again to everyone for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. You've all helped in some way to give us the strength we've needed throughout this ordeal. We're all very grateful and please continue to pray.

Hi Dallas and Dave and family. I, like Jared Boyd, am happy to finally find the blog...not that Dave is EVER unreliable :). I hope you are having a wonderful holiday and I will be praying for you - especially on Tuesday as you start your treatment.

The 18th Psalm is one of my favorites. I am sharing a few verses with you here. Remember that you not only have the love and support of friends and family, but also of the Creator God.

2-5
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the Lord who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies.

16-19
He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters. He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

Love you boys bunches -
