Happy New Year!

We here at our house hope everyone has a full and happy 2009.  Don't forget to make your new years resolutions and keep them for at least a week.  Let's make '09 a great year for the family!  

Cool picture by the way, isn't it?  I may have to use is for a Christmas card next year.  

Christmas update from our house:  I (Dad) got the Band of Brothers DVD collection, the Bourne trilogy collection, a cool pocket knife that I have cut myself with twice already, an apron, and a leather hat.  We also got ourselves the Valley Forge prayer painting to keep up with everybody else.  I might have forgotten a thing or two, but that's pretty much it.  Thanks everybody for your gifts.  Mom will have to list her own loot if she wants too.  Christmas felt more like Christmas when we went over to Travis and Rebecca's house and watched Lorelai open her presents.  She had a blast, and so did we!  Too bad we couldn't watch the Groves kids open their stuff too.   Would've been fun. 

So long everybody.  Love ya!

For Joe, to make him homesick at Christmas

We want to post our sentiments during the holidays without you here.  While Christmas is a time of joy, and should be for remembering the birth of our Saviour, even if it really isn't his birthday, a lot of the joy is gone because you are far away.  We will be thinking of you throughout the holidays, and we offer our support for Ashley while you are gone.  She's strong and a trooper, but we know she can't help but miss you more at this time of year.  You guys are in our prayers always.  See you soon!  Lots of Love,  from Mom and Dad.

Here's a little something for the Groves family

It should remind them of where they used to live, and of the recent days in the mountains.  Snow is a wonderful thing, and so are Canadians.

I couldn't get the video to upload, so go to Google and type in "Canadian Police Chase," and enjoy! Then tell me what you think.
