Well it is safe to say I am totally in love with this little face!! I mean have you ever seen a cuter belly than that. This is my niece Blair! She was born March 23, and she has been such a blessing in our family. My sister Ashley and brother-in-law Brett are amazing parents. I just love this girl!

Well I am pleased to say that I have a job for next year! I am so excited. I will be teaching high school math and coaching freshman volleyball. Surprisingly, I am not freaking out yet! I don't know if it just hasn't hit me or if I am just maturing??!!??

News item #3:
Joel will be the graduate assistant at Evangel next year. He is pretty excited!! He is going back to school to get his master's in education so he can eventually teach and coach one day. I'm so proud of him. School was never his forte, but he is so motivated to get his master's. I know he will make an amazing teacher and coach!

As you all know, it is officially lake season!! It is the most relaxing place in the world. I absolutely love laying out on the dock and listening to good music at various restaurants. It is such a great time to hang out the family.

A New Year

2009 in review..

- Got married in May
- Went to the Bahamas
- First coaching job at Ozark Junior High
- Moved into my first apartment/home
- Experienced life as an ex-volleyball player
- Found out our family will grow....Ashley is with child.

Since it is the beginning of a new year, I guess I must have some new year's resolutions....

1. Get a JOB!
2. Help Joel get his master's degree.
3. Train for a half marathon.
4. Graduate from college!
5. Enjoy the lake more often!

I am sure the list will grow as the year progresses because that is me in a nutshell...a planner!

This is year is going to be so incredible. I am going to be an aunt in March (hopefully Blair comes on my birthday). Another girl in the family is exactly what we need.

Well that is it for now...
