...I'll be home for Christmas...

Tomorrow morning I'll get a ride to the train station, take a bullet train to Tokyo, a local train to the airport, 3 plane rides, a 2 hour car ride, and then I'll be home for Christmas!!! Please pray for my time at home with my family and friends. I hope it will be a restful and encouraging month. I'm SO excited!
A few of the things I'm most looking forward to:
*hugging my not-so-little-anymore nephews
*eating Pizza Hut pizza
*steaks
*artichokes
*shopping at Target
*spending Christmas with my family
*attending church on Christmas Eve
*driving on flat, spacious I-80

YATTA!!!!! Tanoshimi!!! (Basically: "I'm really excited!")
