Year In Review 2007

I can honestly say that 2007 was bitter sweet. One of our best years and one of our worse - all at the same time. As far as business is concerned, definately the bitter side of things. Revenue down by half and expenses up by 20%, that pretty much explains my sleepless nights. The best part was the hours between the sleepless nights - my family really is awesome!

JANUARY - birthday month for Kim, Ron, Scott, Jennifer & Rebekah. Huge BD party for Scotty. Jenn went snowboarding with AZ friends in Utah as well as trip with Scott and cousins Ashley & Brian.
FEBRUARY - Matt's birthday. We went on a family cruise to Ensanada. Matt & Ashley were denied boarding at the dock :( Found out grandchild #3 was on the way.
MARCH - Jenn moved back from Phoenix. Ron & Scott annual dirt bike ride in Mexico. Charlie was born.
APRIL - Ron & Kim went on a western carribean cruise with friends.
MAY - Charlie's blessing here in Las Vegas. Family all down to Tucson for Brad's graduation from the University of Arizona. Brad also graduated from the LDS Institute.
JUNE - Jenn was never home because she was always hanging out with "we're just friends..." Jordan. Everyone here for Scott's graduation from Shadow Ridge High School. Kara's birthday. Scott went on two-week Church History tour.
JULY - Lake Powell trip #1. Brian Blakely decided to hang out with us for a year. Shark Week with Drew.
AUGUST - Brad & Ashley Birthdays. Hallie was born. Lake Powell trip #2.
SEPTEMBER - Jenn & Jordan got engaged. Drew turned 3.
OCTOBER - David's birthday. Everyone to Tucson for Hallie's blessing. Wedding plans and showers. Brad and Kara came back from Tucson to go to the temple with Jenn.
NOVEMBER - Wedding month. Jordan & Jenn were sealed in the temple.
DECEMBER - All back together again for Christmas.
There it is - our year in review. This next year doesn't seem as busy - yet. Mission plans are underway for Scott. We don't know what's in store for him, or for the rest of us, but looking at how much the Lord has blessed us, we'll all do fine.

GOALS FOR 2008
1. Read more books. 1 down 3 to go for the Christmas & birthday gifts. I'd like to read more of the book club books this year. Last year I only read half of them.
2. Read The Book of Mormon twice. Luckily our RS presidency has started off the year with a 6-page a day challenge, so that will definately help.
3. Some how light my seminary class on fire with excitement. A never ending challenge.
4. Organize my office. another never ending challenge.
5. And the goal I'm soooo excited about is part of my birthday present....and it should be in place in the next week or two - I'll blog about it then.
