Jan 2: Lots of driving.

Today was fairly uneventful other than driving. We traveled to Memphis to pick up the kiddos who were returning from Tennessee. We got them back a little after 1PM then had some luch and tarvelled back to mom and dads in Sherwood. Spent a couple of hours there getting in a little rest before hitting the road again. Made it to Springdale about 9PM. Got the van unloaded and fixed the fam some tacos and got my lovely bride some chicken cooked up for her lunches. All together spent about 8.5 hours on the road today. The blessing in this is that we have the whole family back under one roof. Tomorrow we spend some time getting ready to head back to school. Wifey has to start back to work in the morning. Thankful for the blessings of safe travel today.

Ready for a great new year.

2011. The new year is upon us. I am looking forward to the many blessings God has in store for our family this year. The previous year was full of blessing and I know this one will be even better. We start the year off with Crystal and I going to Disney to run in the WDW Marathon. The boys will all be busy in playing basketball and the girls will be involved in dance. Crystal is almost finished with her masters degree and we are all very proud of her. Our oldest daughter Ciera has reached the milestone of 14 years of age and is learning how to drive. I am enjoying teaching her in this new endeavor. Each of the kids is growing in to fine young citizens. I look forward to the opportunity to help them keep growing into the men and women God wants them to be. All in all we were blessed with a great year in 2010 and are excited about the things god has planned for us in 2011. To put it simply we are ready for a great new year.
