Goodbye 2007

As we get close to saying goodbye to 2007 I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holidays! We have had a very eventful and blessed year! Our first blessing was January 17th when we met our spicy, full of life, beautiful baby girl, Gracie Mae Ying! And we also had a fabulous trip to China! In April Troy graduated from school and in May he passed his state boards! In June we moved into our new house! Loving all the room! We also went on a rather long road trip and got to see many friends and family! We also got to introduce Gracie to everyone! We had a great time and a trip we will never forget! In July, Troy was Commissioned and started OBC, in which he finished in October. In October the kids and I traveled to NY for my brother and new SIL's wedding. We had a great trip and got to see family twice in one year! In November my brother came and stayed with us for a few weeks, which was great to spend time with him, as I miss both my brothers so much. Which brings us to December, which has been full of Christmas get togethers, military balls, cookies, decorations, trees, wrapping presents, fun, and laughter with friends and family! My Mom and Tom were out to spend Christmas with us and we had such a great visit! Christmas morning was very exciting as the boys said, "we got the mother load" and they were right! The boys ripped right through their gifts, while Gracie took her time and really enjoyed playing with each gift as she opened it!

Well I hope everyone has had a happy and healthy year and that your blessings have been plenty! We are so grateful for all of ours! May you all have a Happy New Year!
