Another year, coming to a close. This has been a very long year for us. Lots of exciting changes, lots of not so exciting times. I have to say I'm ready to put this year behind us and looking forward to what is coming in 2015. We have so many projects around the house that we want to do. So much more to discover in our community.
In a nutshell, my year:
In January we sold our house, left for a cruise the next day, the kids were out of school for the whole month because of the water crisis and below zero temps. Moved in with Brad's grandma. Brad moved to NC without us in March and he's been working out of town ever since. A few months later when school was finally out we moved to NC and stayed with my parents for the next 7 weeks. Our belongings were in storage for the better part of 8 months. We tried to buy several houses, had a daughter go into double digits. Finally found a house that wasn't what we wanted but when we walked in, we knew it was the one. Dad became cancer-free. The kids went to a new school, we found a new church. Got our yard fenced in. Had our 12 yr wedding anniversary. And I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of things!
How can we be approaching 2015 already?! I remember Y2K and all its hoopla, like it was yesterday. Brad and I were only dating back then. I remember thinking that I couldn't believe it was going to be the year 2000. I tried to imagine what my life might be like when it was 2010. I couldn't even fathom 2015 back then. But here we are. And now I'm trying to picture what my life will be like in 2025! That doesn't even seem possible but it will be here before I can blink. Assuming the Lord doesn't take me home, by death or rapture. I'm looking forward to whatever He has in store for us!
