Goodbye to 2008

We had an amazing time in Sedona with my family. We had a hectic goodbye in the Phoenix airport and the sadness didn't hit me until we got on the plane. We miss everyone so much already...even though it was tense at times (normal right??? after being with family for 7 straight days) but it was all worth it! I think our favorite part was the fun game nights...playing charades, girls against guys Spades, the drawing game that was like Telephone (don't know the name of it Bonnie!) Thank you mom and Rich for an awesome vacation. We love you so much and can not wait to see you this summer! 
So, with that said, I have been thinking about what a year we have had! There have been life changing moments as well as stressful times to reflect on! From having our beautiful baby girl to Miles finding a job after several months of searching! We have so much to be thankful for! I look forward to what 2009 has in store for us and will try my best to take in every precious moment I have with my growing little girl :)

You have definitely had a full year and a life changing one at that! Here's hoping 2009 will be one of new adventures and lots of joy for all of you. Can't wait to see you next time!
