beginning

We are so thankful to have reached today-- the first day of 2008. 2007 was by far the most challenging, stressful year of our life together. Far too often we were forced to compromise the things most important to us for the things that were due or had to be done. The whirlwind has begun to settle already and the new house is beginning to feel like home; the school-free evenings stretch forward into what seems like an endless vacation! Thank you to the family and friends who hung in there with us this past year. We'll do better from now on. Well... as long as we get a few more perfect scores in Guitar Hero.
