Well, time fo
r some last thoughts regarding 2009. It was a turning point in my life, marked with sadness, deep sorrow and
some regrets. But the year was also balanced out with a great overflow of love and support from friends and family. I always thought that I appreciated how short life is, but realized how truly fragile it really is. I wake up every morning, thanking God for all the special people in my life, and feeling how lucky that I have so many loved ones surrounding me. Scared too, fearing that I will lose someone else I love. But I know, that you can't live life with that fear. I also thank God for sending us two new angels this year, Alex and Dylan. I started writing a list of new year's resolutions. Why are they always so daunting! I have decided to pick one thing to work on...loving people more. Giving the most I can, the best of myself, to the people in my life. As for the rest, I am goi
ng to 'wing it' this year. I hope and pray that 2010 shows us all happiness, and no sorrow.
Christmas was an emotional roller coaster, but we got through it keeping busy and enjoying the company of as many family and friends that we could visit! That is really what this time of year is about. We wish we could have seen all of our family, we missed you very much and hope to see you in the new year. The kids had so much fun playing with all of their cousins. Santa was very generous, but family is the most important part for them too. It looks like they have got some good values, and we are pretty proud of that!
We also had the opportunity to spend a few days away, s
ledding, swimming and relaxing. There is nothing like a little sledding to make you feel like a kid again. It was pretty exhilarating! Makes me want to take the kids skiing...now that's been a long time! I used to be speedy quick on those slopes!
Another high
light, of December, was a wonderful visit with our friends from Florida, Shawn, Robyn and their daughter, Breanna. It had been about 2 years since we had seen them last, Breanna being just a newborn baby at the time. I keep trying to get them to move back here, but they really seem to enjoy that sweltering heat! Well, I will continue to try...we miss them so much!
I love this picture!
Speaking of pictures, I took LOTS, yeah, I know, I am a photo junkie. There are so many good ones, but there just isn't room to include them all here. Take a look at our Shutterfly site, they are posted on it. ==>

Mama, you were missed dearly during these first holidays without you. We miss you everyday, but knowing that this time of year was your favorite, made it extra hard. I know you were there in spirit...I heard your laugh, as the kids expressed their joy, in my heart. I (we) will always love you.
Zack and Savvie...the most precious things in our lives and our Easter blessings.

Wow...what a month November was! The biggest new is, of course, the birth of Dylan William. A big congrats to Sharon and Ed! He is a cutie pie and we have gotten a couple visits with him already! Sharon and baby Dylan are finally home from the hospital and settling in. He is such an angel and a blessing!
ntie!!
And Zack got to go to his first Notre Dame game with Lou, courtesy of Meg's Dad. It was a neat experience for him and an exciting game. And a big thanks also to Meg and Vince for putting them up for the night at the farm. Savannah and I were sad to miss the opportunity to go. :)
Thanks Sharon, for hosting another fun Halloween. The kids had a blast getting lots of treats and playing together. It was a little brisk, but at least there was no rain! Now we have plenty of yummy candy to last through the long, cold winter months ahead...lol
we have!!
