2011

If you read my blog, a little window in to our world, you will most likely already know the things that this post is going to recap.  There have been changes, heartbreaks, hopes dashed, miracles, answered prayers and unanswered prayers mixed with wonderful, breathtaking, beautiful moments that made up the past 12 months.  

-We have attended many. many musical events and were in awe of Maci's gift of music.  We've watched parades and band festivals that she has led, listened to her sing, and shared in her excitement when chosen for All-State Chorus, All-State Chamber Choir, etc.

-We have watched Maci play tennis matches.

-We have prayed Morgan through trips to and from TN and for her safety on school trips she has taken.

-We have attended and watched Marshall University ball (basketball and football) and participated in the cheering and the booing as a family.

-I have traveled for work.

-Jim and Maci went to Disney World.

-Both of Jim's parents passed away this year.

-Mom moved out of the nursing home and in to an apartment.

-Jim and I celebrated 25 years of marriage by flying to the beach for a short, much needed, get away.  I loved this man 25 years ago when we got married, but I had no idea how very much more I'd love him in 25 years.

-We've seen boyfriends go, and new boyfriends come.

-We've celebrated birthdays, weddings, and babies being born.

-Maci entered her last year of high school, so there have been lots of "lasts".  Molli entered her last year of college (this seems to be much more joyful than Maci's last year of high school).

-Tyler has hunted, hunted, and hunted.  Along with worked, worked, worked.  He is one busy fellow.

2011 is almost over, and we expectantly look forward to 2012 and all that God has planned for our lives.

Happy New Year!
