Looking back, looking forward

Looking back at 2008...

Dennis went to Russia

The kids and I survived Dennis going to Russia

Dennis interviewed for, was offered, and accepted a new job

We settled the insurance claim on our 2006 auto accident

We paid off our debts

We found out we were expecting another baby

Dennis left his employer of 12 years

I left the church I served for 7 years

We moved back to Eureka

Annalivia started preschool

Dennis finished grad school and received his MBA

Looking forward to 2009...

Daniel will turn 2

Annalivia will turn 4

Dennis will turn 40!

We will say hello to Emmeliese

It is very possible we will say goodbye to at least one dearly beloved one

Looking back, looking forward... our lives are so full of God's goodness. Mine is a beautiful life, replete with joys, complete with sorrows. I pray I treasure every moment of it.
