Have a blessed new year

Well the new year is under way and I hope all have a year full of many blessings. Christmas is over and we had a wonderful time this year. Spending time with my family is one of my favorite things to do and we had a great time both at Jay's and my families this year. Now we are back to school and as busy as ever. We were fortunate this weekend to celebrate my niece's birthday with her. She was the big 30. Just another reminder that I am not getting younger, but maybe wiser. Each new year brings new memories and new learning experiences. This new year of 2009 I really want to get closer to friends and family, really spend time with my kids without other distractions and I want to read the Bible more. I think all of those things are within reach. May all of you reach your goals in your life, as big or small as they might be. God's blessings in 2009.
