Can you Guess??

Here are the things that Gretchen wanted for Christmas: a guitar, a flat surface stove, and a microphone to record vocals on the computer (so she can start recording her own songs).


By Corey's wrapping, can you guess what he got her?? :)

Early Christmas gift :)

Corey and Zach went shopping the other day to get one more gift. When they came home, Corey put what he bought in a box and went upstairs where Gretchen was. He asked for the wrapping paper, scissors and tape. Gretchen said, "Well, since you have another gift that I can open on Christmas morning, are you sure you just don't want to give it to me now?". It didn't take much thought for Corey to say, "Yes". He is always anxious to give his gifts to Gretchen. Plus, it saved him from wrapping it (Corey isn't the BEST wrapper, lol).

He gave Gretchen a Garmin StreetPilot (GPS) for the car. Now, some of you may be laughing thinking that a "woman needs it" but Corey really likes this gift too. You can plug in addresses to save and it can tell you h0w to get there (directing you each step of the way), how fast you're going, how many miles to your destination, averages of almost everything (speed, miles per hour, etc) AND you can look up things in the area like restaurants, lodging, entertainment, intersections, etc. Gretchen wasn't expecting him to get that for her but she and him are both glad that he did. Wasn't that so sweet? :)

"A Weekend To Remember"

0 comments Posted by The McMillins at 8:14 AM


We went on a marriage treat over the weekend in Charleston called "A Weekend To Remember". Originally we weren't planning on leaving Zach with anyone and just going to the day sessions but God worked it out so that we could stay in the hotel and Zach was taken care of. Some friends of ours offered to keep Zach for the whole weekend. We hope someday we'll be able to re-pay the favor.

It was nice to have a weekend of just the two of us but we did miss Zach terribly by Sunday evening. We were able to go out on a date Saturday night and just spend the weekend talking and working on "us" with NO distractions. We bought several books to keep us motivated and even bought a "Couples Series" with hopes to start a home bible study of couples at our house. They also had a game called "Spoueology", which looks like a lot of fun, that we bought. We're hoping to have a few couples over soon just to play that game.

This week has been pretty busy. We have Zach's school "Christmas program" tonight and then our church's "Christmas play" this Sunday. It's a pretty busy week.
