Goodbye 2010…reflecting on a BIG year for our family!

As I sit here and think about what to blog, I begin to think about all that has happened to us in 2010…the good, the bad and the AWESOME…not soo much ugly. We are ever grateful for the blessings we felt in 2010 and pray for more in 2011.

In 2010 (in no particular order) :

We both celebrated our 32nd birthdays

Continued our adoption wait

Met new friends and reconnected with old

Found out Nick’s dad had Lung & Brain Cancer

Recently celebrated good health in Chuck’s recovery

Bought a new car…said bye bye to our 200,500 miles on the old car!

Traveled to Portland, OR and LOVED IT!!! (minus me getting the stomach flu)

Said Goodbye to Nick’s boss, mentor, and friend

Spent lots of time with Chris, Nona and the kids

Traveled to Florida 5 times

Threw a great bridal shower for my cousin Jackie & Matt

Welcomed a BEAUTIFUL bundle of JOY…Brin Nayelli

Experienced the incredible joy the parenthood

Took the dog on lots of walks

Had an AWESOME time off with the baby while on Maternity leave!

Participated in Mommy/baby groups while off of work

Took a beautiful family picture

Introduced the baby to friends and family

Felt an INCREDIBLE out pouring of love and support as we welcomed the baby…THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!

Well, that seems to 2010 in a nut shell. We feel blessed for all that came to us this year and look forward to what is to come in the new year!
