I finally made it to the 2008 newsletter! I had planned to include a slideshow of pix from the year, but the program I usually use is being disagreeable with my blog site, so I'll just post my letter. We certainly had a jam-packed year and 2009 is already looking to be just as busy and fun.
In spite of the sometimes gloomy news coming from various corners of the world, we found ourselves really provided for in every 'need' and many times in the 'wants', too.
We hope that the year ahead finds each of our family members and friends in a similar spot...full of good health & happiness, comfort and care. In a word, blessed.
With good wishes and prayers for 2009,
Bob & Jen
