I cannot believe that it is 2009. When I think about the year that is in front of me I think about all the things that will be happening to my family...like Drew turning 8 and Emilee 5. I will be the big 30 this year and Andy and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary. It seems like this year will be a year that I will not forget... I have been also thinking about some things I want to do differently....I guess you could say my new year's resolutions...1. I want to be a better Christian 2. I want to be a better wife, mother, friend, sister, and daughter. 3. I want to reach someone this year for the Lord. 4. I want to talk less and listen more. 5. Of course I want to lose weight so I guess I better add that as a goal...6. I want to save money and spend less...(it will be difficult but I am setting the goal) and I guess the last goal is to be true to myself...Yeah it sounds deep but I am not trying to mean it that way...well it is getting late and need some sleep...These pictures of the kids are from our visit to Petland...we let the kids choose which animal they want to hold...Drew always chooses the biggest dog and Emilee chooses the smallest...
