Merry Christmas! 2010 was a momentous year for our family. We have learned this year that change is hard and wonderful at the same time. Family relationships are strengthened when you have to lean on each other! And, of course the biggest source of strength that we lean on is our faith. This time of year is especially wonderful as we focus on Christ. We hope to emulate Him in everything we do and say. It's our family's goal to be together forever!! Let's make the holidays a time to connect with our loved ones and find the strength we need to make each day meaningful. We love you! If you're reading this...I'm glad you're part of my life.
Merry Christmas.

Wow, you guys are busy! I never knew that Grant was hospitalized for dehydration or got his tongue clipped. Crazy! I love all the pictures. Thanks for sharing, you make me want to do more. But I guess if I typed everything out I would feel like I do a lot too. Here's to another year!
You guys certainly have been busy. It sounds like you guys are liking Arizona.
Sarah! Let's get together soon! Fabric flowers and Cricut fun! :)
Sarah, I just spent an hour catching up on your blog! I am SO behind! I missed your birthday in November and I missed talking to you at Christmas. I feel like my life is passing me by and I'm going to wake up in 5 years and wonder where my friends went? Ahhhhh!!! I really want to stay in contact more! I would love to chat with you and catch up on our lives. Miss you... xoxo, Meg
