A Year At A Glance

January - We started the year out by celebrating our oldest daughters, Emma Kate's 4th birthday. She has grown so very much and is such a joy!

February - Brian and I had our 8th Valentines Day together. This man never ceases to amaze me! Thank you for your love and support. You are truly a blessing from the Lord!

March - WOW! This month was full of ups and downs for us. First we started out the month with celebrating Brian's 30th birthday. Then to our surprise, on March 17, Maggie Ann was born 2 1/2 weeks early. She was in the hospital for 10 days but we are pleased that she is very healthy and home with us.

April - We celebrated our first Easter as a family of FIVE. It was wonderful to celebrate our Lord and Saviors resurrection - for without Him we truly would be nothing!

May - Michelle had her first Mother's Day as a mother of three precious baby girls. She is thankful to the Father for allowing her to raise them.

June - Brian and Michelle celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary. Brian had his first Father's Day as a father of three little girls who love him dearly. Maggie Ann and Michelle also headed to Texas for Michelle's cousin, Ashley's graduation from High School.

July - Michelle directed her second Vacation Bible School at Millbrook Presbyterian. My does she have a heart for the kiddos there at our church. With much help from our wonderful church family we were able to have a very successful Vacation Bible School.

August - We celebrated our middles child, Caroline's 2nd birthday. She is getting too big too fast. She is a blessing to our life each and every day. Emma Kate also starts Kindergarten 4.

September - We celebrated Michelle's 29th birthday.

October - Michelle helped with putting together a Reformation Festival at our church. It was great to teach the children of all the reformers of old that did so much for us.

November - We welcomed new family members. Jenna (Brian's sister gets married) and Sierra (Michelle's sister) is adopted. We are thankful to the father for these great new additions to our family.

December - Brian and I will be celebrating Christmas with my dad in Missouri. We are excited to spend time with family that we don't see very often.

We pray you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Because of Him -
Brian, Michelle, Emma Kate, Caroline and Maggie Ann
