Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all our friends and family scattered across the globe! We pray this year is full of love, peace, and opportunities for you to grow.



Last night's New Year celebration was a bit muted for us. We had planned on going into Annapolis for their celebration but it was reallly windy (40+ mph gusts) and cold and Joshua was still running a fever and coughing constantly. The Middles were going to an all-nighter at the church and Jarrett decided to stay home with Joshua so Joshie wasn't stuck with the "old people."


We played a game, had a "toast" of Fresca in champagne glasses (Joshua thought we were really supposed to make toast), and at 10:00 he led us on a parade on the house, banging on pans with spoons. Afterwards, Jarrett read him a book, we gave him some children's Nyquil (next best thing to the brandy a friend recommended.....;-) ), and he was out like a light.



The rest of our evening consisted of watching the Tarheels hand a defeat to yet another team....this one Nevada. GO HEELS!


Not too exciting, but it was a nice evening. Today, after sticky buns for breakfast, and a quick look at the Rose Parade, the Middles are asleep, the J's are downstairs playing with the guitar, Dave is finishing some work in front of a football game, and I've got a cleaning thing going on! Hope the rest of you are enjoying a nice day at home, too!
