A New Year

It's a new year full of wonder and adventure. What will this year hold? What will it bring? What resolutions are we going to try and succeed, or try and fail? I know that a lot can happen in a year. Looking back on this year alot has happened.

At the beginning of this year I was a stay at home mom. Now I work full-time. My children all moved up in age and sizes (quite a few). I went from having two cars to one. I went from not seeing my husband that much due to a demanding job and long commute to sharing in the commute and seeing him more often and less of the kids :(. We have had members of my family graduate from high school, have babies, move, divorce, change jobs, change hair style and color, change weight and height, some are far away and some are closer. Oh, what adventures a year can bring.

We have been on several trips this year. We've been to Palmyra, NY and the Hill Camorah. We have visited Canada, seen Niagrah Falls Canada and NY. We have been to Texas to visit family and see Jennifer graduate high school. We have been to NY city to see Bill's sister Jenny graduate college. We have been to Outer Banks, NC for our Memorial Day vacation. Bill has visited California for a work conference and Germany for work. We have been on many weekend travels exploring our beautiful country. We've been to skyline Drive to see snow and hike. We've driven to Chambersburg PA just for fun and to see where some of our favorite food are made, like the Martins brand chips, and an old candy shop that has been around since the 1800's. Fresh organic Milk from a creamery..mmmm so yummy. We have had lots of wonderful adventures in our little VW Golf. It's amazing how much it can hold and how much we've done and seen in one year. Next year we may even have more adventures.

We have family moving closer to us (within a 9 hr drive) just a weekend trip away. We have promotions and raises this year. We have our 10 year anniversary coming up this year. WOW has it really been that long! yep i guess so. We have kids changing grades and growing faster than we'd like. We have trips to plan and take. Time to spend with family and friends. More friends to make and keep. May this new year bring all the best for you and yours. I know we will try to make this the best year ever. Full of family and friends and lots of laughter. Happy New Year and Happy Adventures :)
