We hope that all of you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year; I know we all did. Christmas was wonderful for all of us, and despite what Tyson said in our Christmas letter, I really didn't get rid of all of our traditions, we actually added a few new ones. Everyone had a favorite gift... Emily - Guitar Hero; Tyson - Rip Stick; Justin - Nintendo DS; Ryan - Geo Trax (Nicole's favorite too!) Abigail - Dora Backpack; Jeff's - Digital Picture Frame (and everything else that Nicole gave him). We have had beautiful weather, but because of it being so warm it hasn't really seemed too much like the Christmas season. Here is my favorite picture of Justin and Abigail, it is not very often that we have one turn out this cute! The next picture is of the whole family the Sunday before Christmas. I don't know how to make the pictures go where I want them to yet. Maybe I will figure it out sometime this upcoming year!
2008 was a wonderful year for our family, despite everything that is going on around the world, we have been extremely blessed. We are so grateful for all of our blessings. The highlight of 2008 were our two trips this summer; one to Utah and the other to Pennsylvania.
We started the New Year off with a night full of games. We played games until 12:00 with the three oldest kids. It is fun now that they are old enough to really play. We spent New Years day just relaxing and Justin and Tyson played flag football with some friends. Tyson would like this to be a tradition every year.
