Welcome January Ring
out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow;
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
January is the starting point for many new things, and
it's common practice to make new resolutions and goals
for the upcoming year. So many people try to make up for
the excesses of the holidays come January, and the month
has become a catch all of the guilt of over-indulgence.
We are very blessed this year in that we did not have
major excesses at Christmas. We purchased fewer
Christmas presents this year than in the past, but both
of the girls were able to recieve things they truly
enjoy. We did not have a huge dinner for extended
family, but we had a very nice dinner at home with those
who are closest to us. In all, the closing of 2009
was very nice and we were blessed with a white
Chirstmas, the first Sydnee has ever seen. With
the coming of the new year, we will be adding a large
new focus in our lives, we are purchasing a new home.
After months of searching through the real estate sites,
we have found a home that will fit our needs.
There will be a lot going into this home, as it needs
some repairs, a good cleaning and a lot paint. We
are not moving far (just a few blocks down the road) so
we will still be in our wonderful neighborhood.
More will be added once we have some before and after
photos to share.
