2008 Christmas Greetings!

Seeing as how we use our blog as more of a journal I thought I ought to post our Christmas card for 2008. It also serves as a nice way for anyone to read it who didn't receive a hard copy. If you didn't get one and would like one in the future we probably just don't have your address so be sure to send it our way. Until then Feliz Navidad!

A bright Christmas greeting is the reason
For this festive rhyme; ‘Tis the season
This may seem short compared to years past
Believe it or not our lives are settling down at last

We’ve finally done it; we purchased a home
Happy are we with no need to roam
And thus in attempt to send you a summary
Here are the joys of our small but growing family

Dan’s enjoying his new exercise perk
By riding his spiffy red bicycle to work
Cassie continues her interpreting education
As she tested and received State Certification

Lydia is full of life and always loves to sing
She dresses as a princess with accessories that bling
She dances, rides trikes, and loves to play games
Most impressive is her talent at remembering names

The highlight of our year was Emmett’s birth in June
His big contagious smile will make you want to hold him soon
A content and perfect baby, you just can’t resist his snuggling
He sits and rolls but best of all melts hearts with all his giggling

And now to you, friends and family so dear
We leave you our love wishing more of you were near
Thus we close by saying Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
