Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! We're quite relieved to be done with 2009. It was quite a difficult year for us - but as my brother pointed out, the bonds with friends and family grew so much stronger and we learned what is really important in life.

The holidays found us busy busy! We hosted a fun Christmas party that brought everyone together dressed to the 9's...


We had my family down for Christmas Eve and Lyndon's family plus my aunt Barb and uncle Ken for Christmas day festivities....

Although December was so fun and exciting, we are somewhat relieved the month has ended and the new year has begun!

We look forward to seeing what the doctors say about Isaac's face. He was to have had tests on Monday the 28th but because he had a pretty raspy cough and the tests require him to be under general anesthesia, we had to reschedule for January 25th.

Yesterday we took the kids up to Snoqualmie Pass for some sledding. It was loads of fun!


We are excited to see what January brings. Our good friends Olivia and Tim are expecting their second boy and our Sydney is turning 5!! Can't believe how time flies. Last night we were just viewing home videos from when Sydney was so little. I can't imagine what it will be like to look at these videos in 10, 15 years!

We hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! Many blessings!
