2008 is finally over and I am sure like most Americans we are hoping 2009 will be better. Don't get me wrong, we had some great times in 2008. 2007 is still my favorite year though. In 2008 we watched the girls turn from blobs into little people, mini Chad and mini Courtney to be exact. It has been so much fun to watch them grow and learn everyday. We have been very blessed with a happy, healthy family and wonderful friends. We spent an amazing week on Martha's Vineyard with 4 other couples/families, we sent the girls to Nana and Papa's for 6 days so we could watch the most amazing golf tournament-the US Open with Tiger winning in a 19 hole playoff, we sent the girls to Nana and Papa's for a weekend so we could attend the Motley Crue concert and have an extra day to recover, Grandma BB came to visit a couple times, and Grampy Rick and Grammy Jeffie came to visit also. The girls started co-op toddler preschool in September and have learned so much and have had such a great time. They have spent many many days playing with all of their friends. Despite the ugliness in the financial world, 2008 was still a good year.
To celebrate the new year we had Katie, Ryan, Kendra, Austin, Katie H, and Emerson over to drink and play games. It was pretty mellow but lots of fun. The girls must have known something was going on because they woke up 5 minutes before midnight and were able to bring in the new year with us. Then of course Daddy had to put on the video of Eddie Vedder singing “A Quick One While He’s Away” with My Morning Jacket. 
Another year down. I hope everyone was blessed with a wonderful holiday season.
