Wow, what can we say? 2009 came and went awful fast, and none too soon. We certainly had our ups and lots of downs in 2009. The housing market here in Arizona has had a lot to do with the downs. One of the 'ups' for us this year was Christmas. We were able to spend it at home and have a quiet day with the boys unwrapping presents and spending time together as a family. It was nice to relax and enjoy each others company. The funny thing about the Christmas was that days and weeks went into it's preparation, yet the gifts were unwrapped in mere moments in what seemed like a hurricane of boys around the tree. It was all in good cheer and so much fun to watch. We look forward to 2010 and hope that this will be our year in every way.
Never too big to be Mom's little boy!
