Goodbye 2008! Bring it on 2009!

In some ways I am glad to see 2008 go. It has been a dramatic one for us. A brief recap of just some of the events...
Blake leaves on his mission, Jake and Laura's baby, Payten, is born very premature, mom and dad move out of their house of 25 years (I am so glad they are in Gilbert now!), Grandpa Woolf passes away, Baby Dane is born emergency C-Section.

I have learned that life takes so many twists and turns, and one just never knows what is next. Heavenly Father is really the only one in control around here. On that note, I am ready for a fabulous new year. As a mom, I am excited to be done having babies and start getting my body back into shape. I do think that I ended up with a pretty good batch of kids though, don't you?

Happy New Year! I too am a bit glad to see 2008 go and I hope that 2009 is a good one. Your 2008 has been pretty eventful! Ours hasn't been quite as eventful but eventful enough for us! So here's to a fabulous 2009!

P.S. I do think agree you got a great group of boys! I wish Brilynn's was a little younger and maybe had a shot with one of those cute boys of yours.

umm, wonderful family. but i am a strong believer that we are just not 'given' amazing kids. most amazing kids have amazing parents.
& good luck with the whole body thing. :)
