Events of 2009

We have had a busy 2009! The most exciting news is our favorite Norah. We're so excited she's part of our family and I can't think of a better thing to be spoiled with!
Brian was called to the stake presidency and although he is gone quite often, somehow it feels like we're able to do more together as a family and I know we are being blessed for his dedication- and I warrant some of those blessings for being a single mom on Sundays! Along with this, I was released as Primary President. I really loved that calling and miss it, but it's nice to have a break.
Toff came home from Iraq! I still can't look at any pictures of soldiers, or hear any stories without my eyes welling up.
My mom came to live with us in July. It really has been nice having her here. She's a great help, and it's kind of fun to have someone to watch Gray's Anatomy with!
Asher started preschool and he LOVES it. It has been so good for him to have structured scheduled time. If you know Asher at all you know he loves schedules and always wants to know "what time" we're doing everything.
As of December Evie is now potty trained!!! Hooray for the toilet! She is even staying dry at night so it's wonderful only having one child in diapers again.
We found out Brian and I are going to Hawaii the end of Feb!!!! His job doesn't have many perks but this is a HUGE one!
Well that's it in a nutshell. It was a perfect 2009! Thanks to all our friends and family that have made this year another wonderful year in our lives.
