2010! Wow! It’s crazy to think about, but it’s here! We hope that you have enjoyed an AMAZING New Year with your family and friends, and that you are armed with lots of resolutions to fulfill. I used to be so anti-resolutions, but really, if you’re not making goals for yourself in life, you are living with zero challenge to become all God desires you to be. Go out and make a resolution. You don’t need to make a ton. Make one and stick to it! I’m excited over things that God has put on my heart and hope to leave 2010 behind me much differently than I entered it…with a better ME!
We have enjoyed the last days of 2009 spending time together and celebrating Christmas with family and having a new 10 yr old in the crib! Bailey celebrated her birthday with some of her 4th grade girlfriends by having a bonfire and s’mores, cookie cake, and hot chocolate! Can you say H-Y-P-E-R!!! They had such a great time, though. We are so incredibly proud of Bailey and the young lady she is becoming. She fills our home with her sweet laugh, artsy personality and her love for others. She is such a blessing to us!
We have enjoyed seeing our families over the holidays. Our time with them is few and far between with our weekends being full, but when we have the chance to see them, it’s always a blessing.
We hope that this year is filled with much love, laughter and joy! Take time to do for others and make sure your friends and family know you love them! Happy 2010!

Since we're in Thailand I can see and comment on your blog! Such great pictures of your family–I'd love to see them all again someday. Thank you SO much for your prayers and support. They have really meant a lot. 13 days and that baby girl will be in our arms. 🙂
