2010 Recap

Just looking back over my older blog entries this morning & decided I'd do a kind of 'Year in Review' since we are winding down on twenty-ten here & getting ready to head into a bright New Year.

**************************

The kids rang in Twenty-Ten at Winterfest up at LU.....with the likes of Skillet & Toby Mac! What a way to bring in the New Year!

My Alli-Cat turned 11

And I celebrated my 45th birthday.

*************
February

Maw turned 70 this year & we surprised her with a party in the old TRBC fellowship hall

Chris celebrated his 21st birthday with a blizzard! We got about 11" of snow. They had cancelled classes the night before so we got up EARLY & took him to breakfast at IHOP. What an adventure. At least it made for a memorable birthday!

On Thursday night before Chris' BD....since they were calling for the 'Blizzard', we had an impromtu celebration at Maw's house with Sarah & the kids.

March

We celebrated 23 years of wedded bliss!

Spring Break.....Easter shopping & of course a coffee break at Starbucks!
