Happy New Year! 2009 .... REALLY?

I hope this finds everyone enjoying 2009. Is it true that its been 9 years since the whole Y2K worry? 9 years since Steve and I bought and moved into our house, spending New Years Eve home to stay safe and sound, just in case. 8 years since Steve proposed to me, hanging a mini bag from the Christmas tree with a ring tucked inside. 12 years since Steve and I met, 1 night out celebrating Christmas with Friends at McFinsters... me 'picking' him up with some cheesy line. Has it really been 5 years that Evelyn has been in our life.... ? She was due December 24, 2003... I went into labor in the early hours of the 20th and she was born at 2:28am on the 21st of December. The month of December has brought many milestones for Steve and I, many, many memories. This Christmas was just as fun if not more. The Girls are at an incredible age, full of magic and belief, innocence and true surprise. We had a great Christmas and a fabulous New Year. We went to the lake with the Gerbers, Kenny and Sabra. Taking the kids along to play in the snow. They both stayed up until after midnight sledding off the porch. We pray that 2009 is great for all, full of happiness and HEALTH!
