January 13. I am just stashing away the final remains of Christmas. Looking over the pictures (thank you Afton) I wonder why December is always the fastest month of the year? Can't it hang around a little longer?
As the leaves continue to change, noted changes and milestones within our family are taking place as well. This has been a busy Fall. Andrew entered his freshman year of high school. He also decided to detour from our family's usual choice of soccer or basketball and venture into the world of football. MaryBeth was most anxious to begin 7th grade and hence be able to play on the school basketball team. She also celebrated the big 13! She is still at a wonderful age where a weekend with mom and a few close friends is preferable. How much longer will that last? Aaron continues to be our favorite source of entertainment. At 9 (almost 10) he just squeaks by being young enough to trick -or- treat. Sad he is our last to dress up and go begging door to door. Following is a montage of pictures from the last several months. Here's hoping this will satisfy my daughter who is on me to make a new post. This one is for you Afton!! 
I asked the Lord to tell me
