I thought I would kickoff my blog with a tribute to 2008. This would have made more sense if it was still the first week in January, but as I mentioned before, excuses and procrastination got the best of me.
Here are the top 5 reasons 2008 was an amazing year (in no particular order):
#2 We celebrated our 1-year wedding anniversary!
#3 We attended a Renovare Conference in Houston
Josh, Kim, Jon and I went to Houston for a Renovare Conference. Kim and I got to hear Dallas Willard (one of Jon and Josh's favorite authors/spiritual mentor) speak.
#4 We celebrated my nephew Cole's 1st Birthday!
(I wanted to include some of his B-day party pics, but I have about 100. Expect to see A LOT more of this little pumpkin in the future! I mean is he not the most adorable baby you've ever seen?)
#5 I had a reunion with my girls at Mizzou's Homecoming
We all live in different states (Texas, Cali, New York, Colorado, Illinois, Missouri), so it was GREAT to have everyone in the same city/house/car...etc.#6 I screamed like a little girl at the NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK CONCERT
Okay, I know I said the top 5 reasons, but I had to throw in a 6th. My sister-in-law Kim hooked us up with New Kids On The Block concert tickets! It was beyond AMAZING!!! Kim, Kim's sister and my friend Jaime, my sister Lyric and my sister-in-law Shannon had the best time singing our hearts out to some Hanging Tough, Step-by-Step and my personal favorite...Cover Girl!

So there are about a million other amazing things from 2008 that I could list like spending tons of quality time with family, business blessings, Jon's AMAZING sermons he preached at Four Corners Church, fun in the sun by the pool, celebrating Jon's parents 35th wedding anniversary, CHRISTMAS, our nephew Cade's acting debut and more, but I think my first post is long enough!
