Happy New Year 2010


We spent a quiet New Year's Eve with our family. First, we met for dinner with the whole gang, plus some of Laura's in laws. We had quite a wait for a table but finally our group of 9 adults and 6 children was seated and served. After dinner we stopped at Ryan and Jessica's for an hour or so. Our goal was to be home by 10:30 and we made it. We watched a couple of episodes of 24 {we are addicted} and greeted the New Year!


2009 was a wonderful year for our family - the highlight being the birth of our 4th grandchild - Jackson Ryan.


We look forward to 2010 - I, as always, have many goals - we'll see how I do!!


Happy 2010!!



A New Year

by Joyce Blakney Duerr


As the New Year dawns upon us

We seek Your forgiveness for the sins of the past.


May our one resolution for this coming year

Be to walk with You from the first day to the last.


Fill each day with a new awareness of Your presence

And make us a blessing to those around us.

Happy New Year to you. Your picture isn't showing up. Hope all is well. It is a little on the cold side here in MN!

We had a fun New Years with you all - we even survived the long wait at dinner! Hope you have a good trip to CA and we'll see you when you get back!
