Well the silly saying goes...I was so far behind that I thought I was ahead. That's me!
Lately it's been one thing right after another for us.We've gone days without seeing each other and then only seeing each other to work on the next project for youth group or home. I feel as though we haven't really stopped since Thanksgiving. Guess that would be the reason for not posting in such a VERY LONG.
So a recap of the last 4 months of our lives & all the fun adventures involved. There's never a dull, quiet moment.
Thanksgiving was hosted by the fabulous Nicole Berry who had the joys of cooking her very first turkey! Of course the moments were documented for enjoyment for years to come. We had a lovely time sharing with the Berry/Malseed family. Ella, right in the midst of potty training, made sure to let us know that she had pee pee in the potty as we all shared our moments of gratitude for the past year. She took all of us from tears of gratitude for God allowing Chris to enjoy one more Thanksgiving to tears of laughter! She definitely has a way with making everyone so happy.
Christmas was actually at our home. My family came and shared with us on Christmas Eve and was immediately followed by the Berry Clan who hung out for a few days. The boys highlight of Christmas was new shotguns. I do believe their favorite part was taking a day and going shooting. 
The week following Christmas we went skiing in West Virginia with John and Denice. It was a great time to get away for a couple of days and just enjoy the snow and wonderful beauty of the mountains. It's been strange being here in Fayetteville with little to no snow all winter long, so it was nice to see the snow pouring down as we entered West Virginia. It was some of the best skiing conditions we've ever experienced. It was a great way to close out our 2009. An amazing year with many new adventures.
