Holidays, Home Improvement & Hope

Long time, no post! As I am sure it has been with all of you it has been a busy time around here! We had a full 3-day celebration of Christmas enjoying lots of time with family and festivity. We certainly hope you had a fantastic Christmas and a Happy New Year! Cynthia and I enjoyed a quiet New Year's celebration with golfing, a movie, and dinner at P.F. Changs on New Year's Eve---then retired to finish off the year cuddled up. In between celebrations we tackled some home improvement. Our gift to each other this year was our new french doors that has made all the difference in appearance and practicality as the old sliding glass door was threatening to fall out in our hands! Then we purchased four new lights and installed them--even including putting in a new fan and light in our master bedroom which didn't have a light at all. Talk about a difference! Then we bravely face the new year with full appreciation for all that God has done for us in 2005. We have hope for our children, careers, ministry, home, and friends. This is going to be a good year!
