Happy New Year!

Hope your 2012 has gotten off to a great start! On New Year's Eve we had our TX relatives and some friends over for dinner and a game night. We had multiple games going in two different rooms. It was loud and crazy and fun!



We started a Settlers of Catan game with our TX cousins, that our family finished the next day. Son L ultimately won!

Everyone else left earlier, so on the stroke of midnight our family of seven toasted the new year with sparkling cider and cheers!



And then we collapsed into bed. :-)

No doubt 2012 will hold its share of heartache as well as joys. Knowing that God knows the future, and holds both it and us in His strong and loving arms gives me such confidence and strength.
