Hailey, I agree this is a good idea to keep in touch! I hope we can teach everyone at Christmas how to do this! I know teaching my mother might be a challenge! I am excited to see everyone and I have to remind Stephanie to bring her video camera so we can have another Lance Family Christmas video like last year!
I just got back from a middle school/high school lock-in that a group of us from my hall helped lead down in southwest Virginia. There were about twelve of us that went and about 150-200 showed up for the all nighter in this small coal mining town. It was a quick trip, with little sleep! A church puts on this lock-in every year with games and small bible sessions that kids can come to throughout the night.
Last week finished up my biggest week of classes. I had a couple finals and projects due, which I am happy are out of the way. Finals will be next week, so this week will just be dedicated to lots of studying! I also am applying to be an RA for next year, and that application was due this past week. It is a really long process here to be an RA. My application was 7 pages long, plus a personailty test and spiritual gifts test! The first elimination is not until January, so it will be a while until I hear back about it.
Well, thats about it for now. I will be home sometime on Dec. 13 and hopefully will start work at Smucker's the following Monday. They called me before Thanksgiving and asked me to work some hours while I am home, so hopefully I can fill up most of my break with work seeing as the bank account is rapidly depleting! Hope all is well with everyone else, see you all soon!

Hey Mark!
Did you know Adam's going to Liberty too? He's working on business degree through distance learning. His classes don't finish until Dec 15th though. So far Adam has really enjoyed his classes.
Sounds like your lock-in was fun. I never did anything like that when I was younger-- I wasn't a Christian, and I never went to church. It'll be fun seeing Charlotte grow up in her faith and get to do things like that though.
We'll pray for your RA application. Sounds like they're very discriminating!
Hey Mark:
Sounds like you are really busy. The lock in sounds like fun. Were the kids all different ages? Sounds like every kid in town was there if it was a small mining town! I'm sure Steph will see your request to bring her camera but we'll have to download it to my computer and maybe Krista can edit it since Steph will not have time to do it on her trip. Krista wants to take a video of the swim team and make a video to show at the end of the year also.
Can't wait to see everyone!
Love,
Carol
