Happy New Year!!

We hope that you have enjoyed the holidays with your family and that you are looking foward to a great 2008.

The past few days have continued to be really enjoyable here at the home. We've had lots of time to play with the kiddos, playing soccer and knockout have been some of their favorites. They are also enjoying playing with the new puppy.

For New Year's Eve we watched movies and ate cookies with the kids. Much like Christmas Eve at midnight the skies lit up with fireworks for a good 20 minutes. A small church meets next door and they were up until atleast 2:15 this morning.

For New Years we had a special lunch of turkey, rice, green beans and brownies. We were especially grateful to a few people who attend the same church as we do here that donated turkeys and cokes for lunch today.

We are very much looking foward to the arrival of Lee's mom and cousin and also a mission team from Pennsylvania. The group from Pennsylvania comes twice each year - the kids (and us) are looking foward to spending time with them.

We'd ask you all to join in praying for healing for our friend and co-worker, Kara, who is dealing with pneumonia for the second time in 3 months.

We are grateful to each of you that continue support and pray for us.
