Learning to ride her bike ~ January 2009
Many Youth Orchestra practices, performances and concerts throughout the year
Fishing...catch and release several times...a birthday memory
Spring Picnic and several other times of fellowship gatherings during the year
Snippets from our stay in TN
Trip to KY ~ Wonderful time at the Creation Museum
While in KY ~ a drive north into Ohio to visit the US Air Force Museum
The men in the family enjoyed a Cincinatti Reds game on Memorial Day...and took home a foul ball to remember the day
Snippets from our week in NC
Many trips to the beach over the summer ~ always new sea creatures to be discovered...this was quite a day
What's summer without watermelon ~ I can only imagine how much was eaten this summer!
A fun field trip to tour the Nina and Pinta replica ships ~ VERY HOT day
September Events...My 38th and 5 days later the much anticipated arrival of Elizabeth Hope!
Fall Family Style Fun ~ Pioneer Settlement was the setting of a full day enjoying musicians, artisians, craftsmen, good food and fun ~ like barn dancing.
Several trips to the museum...family membership is great!
This was a blessed two day event Alyssa & I participated in ~ both days full of Biblical training in godly character, etiquette and the finale of a full luncheon ~ putting all the learning into action.
Every year we take a family Christmas picture and there is usually a story to share...
The last quarter of this year has been a joy with Elizabeth ~ she is greatly loved & not usually without one of her siblings at her side.
Our 2nd annual trip to see the Festival of Lights locally ~ a new family tradition we have enjoyed. Whether at the festival or out looking at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve, we always look for the nativity scenes.
Before Christmas Sunday service...Elizabeth's 1st
That is a glimpse of our year...so much more was done, experienced and seen. So many "seasons of life" which we have walked through...so grateful for His grace and mercy as we did.

What a wonderful year it has been!
I think that it is a great idea to review and cherish past memories, and to look forward at this new year as another year to live as a light for Him. Blessing this new year!
