Happy New Year!

We hope you have had a great start to the new year! It is hard to believe that 2008 has come and gone. It was a busy year for us. One with a lot of changes, but they have all been changes for the better.

December was an especially busy month, as it always is. We spent time with friends and families preparing our hearts for Christmas. We saw both sides of the family for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We were very luck to attend our nephew's baptism in Newport News. Then we wrapped up the year with a trip down to the beach. It was a full beach house with the two of us, Scott's parents, Scott's sisters and brother in-law, our two nephews, Scott's aunt and uncle, and three cousins. We has a great time just being bums, playing games, and watching TV. And now back to work :-(

We enjoyed reading all of your Christmas cards and all of the prayers you included with them for our adoption process. We haven't heard anything for a while, but that is to be expected. We appreciate everyone waiting anxiously with us! Of course we'll let you all know as soon as we know anything!

This winter we are slowly going to get the nursery together. We cleared out the room this weekend (man, there was a lot of stuff in there). We'll probably put some furniture together next weekend. It has been sitting in boxes for about a month now. We need to make sure everything is in good condition and not missing any parts. We are just going to take our time and do things little by little, but of course if we hear anything we'll speed up that process!

Sorry for the long blog, but it had been a while. We had been getting some subtle and not so subtle hints on the need to update! Hope 2009 is a great one for you and your family!
