Happy 2009

Michaela and I had a quiet New Years Eve together...we went out for dinner then put on our jammies and hung out at home. We had a good time together laughing and fooling around...she got to sleep with me and said it should be a new years tradition.

Here are a couple of pictures of our celebration!















This is our self portrait...it was tough because we were laughing so hard.















Michaela enjoying her sparkling apple-pomegranate juice...and giving Buddy a squeeze.

This year there are a few things about my life that I would like to change. I need to be a bit more scheduled, I need to have a cleaning schedule to keep ahead of things instead of playing catch up. I will have one shopping day a week...that way I'm not running to the store too often. I find that when I stroll around Wal Mart I tend to spend a little more than I need to!

I want my life to reflect my relationship with the Lord. I want to make memories with Michaela and continue to raise her to be a caring, loving person.
