The Start Of Something Good...

Happy 2009! I hope that everyone's holiday season was wonderful and that lots of quality time was able to be spent with friends and family. Graham and I stayed in Birmingham through the 25th and spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my family. We boarded a plane at 6:00 am the day after Christmas and headed off to Oklahoma for the next week. Our time there was wonderful - lots of fun time with people so special to the both of us - we were very thankful for the opportunity to spend a week in OK!

For New Years Eve we went out with a lot of Graham's friends from home and found ourselves in an airplane hanger at quite the dance party. Really my scene.... ...wait... It was tons of fun, nonetheless :) Here are some pictures from that night:



Since we have returned home we have been able to spend lots of time with our friends here in Birmingham which has been wonderful! Between the National Championship game (Boomer Sooner anyways :)), friends' weddings, and The Bachelor...I've loved getting to see my friends so much! We are constantly reminded of how blessed we are to have a home to host our precious friends in.

With all of the fun that has been going on, we have also been spending lots of time in the hospital with Graham's grandfather and my grandmother. Both are very ill right now, which has called for some tough times over the past few weeks. We appreciate and covet all prayers for our families during these times. We trust and believe that the Lord is in control.
