Jenny and I enjoyed Handel’s Messiah at Bass Hall in Fort Worth last week. Like most choral performances, it made me want to sing in a choir again. It also reminded me of the majesty of Christ, the grandeur of His plan for the world, and how insignificant most of our daily worries really are.

Friday night was graduation time. On a cold, drizzly night aboard the USS Lexington in Corpus Christi, with many members of my family aboard, I finally put an official end to my time at Embry-Riddle. I met ERAU administrators and a fellow student for the first time. My mother- and father-in-law flew Southwest for free for the first time as well. We toured the Texas State Aquarium beforehand, which I recommend. Dad treated us to a fabulous dinner at Landry’s Seafood, which I also recommend. It was a great weekend.

It’s hard to believe Christmas is almost upon us! 2007 is only a few weeks away. Jenny and I will celebrate our 4-year anniversary soon. It’s always amazing how time flies!
