WOW...it is officially 2010!!! So, what is this year going to be called...(a question posed by FOX6 following a UC Bearcat beat down at the Sugar Bowl) Two Thousand Ten or Twenty-Ten or there is my new favorite Two-O-One-O, either way someone will label it something and it will stick, so I promise I won't lose sleep.
I did manage to see the new year come in, but that is because I am nosy curious and had to catch up on my blog reading (just so you know...I am caught up now).
Lots of people are talking about resolutions...and I am still trying to find a piece of paper to write on. I always try to choose meaningful resolutions; it takes a good week just to figure out what I want to write down, then I spend the next week trying to figure out how I break them before the ink dries? This year is different...it is 2010...and I resolve to keep my resolutions (that is, once I decide what they are).
Here is the number 1 on my list. I am going to give a huge effort for Radical change in my Christian Life. I love knowing I have a Heavenly Father that cares for me, but now it is time for me to learn more, grow more, love more, help more, and really give back. I have been looking forward to this for quite some time...so, look out Bible, I am DIVING IN!!! Also, if you too are not sure what you Resolve to do this upcoming Two-O-One-O...try this:
I DARE YOU!!!!
Oh...don't forget about the GIVE-away time is closing in and you definitely want the chance to win a free purse/bag...besides you get to pick, what could be more fun than that?
ta-ta for now!

Gifts of the Magi
James and Maggie are tucked away all snug in their beds...three presents await them for CHRISTmas morning. We only give them three gifts, just as three gifts were given to the baby Jesus. We read the CHRISTmas story from Luke 2 and will sing Happy Birthday JESUS in the morning. We still do a side of santa and watched the Polar Express tonight...but most important is the baby that was born to save us from our sins...Merry CHRISTmas!!!!
Frank & Lucy are given three gifts, too. Geese, chew bone and a bag of Snausages!

I promise we've been good this year!!!
James and Maggie were very excited to visit Ho Ho this year! Maggie was a bit hesitant to begin with, but managed to contain her emotions long enough to snap the photo. They also wanted the Rudolph the photographer was holding...as to why they are reaching out in the photo!
