JanuaryWe kicked off 2007 the same as we have most other years--at the Rose Parade. This year though, with Mathew still a baby and Carly pregnant, we had to be more comfortable, so we stayed in our RV.
FebruaryAfter going to the boat show in January, by February Jon couldn't wait to get a boat. At the first opportunity, he bought a new wakeboard boat that he loves.
MarchWe'll use any excuse to get out on the lake. So for Mathew's first birthday in March we took the boat out.
AprilMathew started walking soon after his birthday.
MayIn May Emma Jean was born, a couple of weeks early after a quick and easy delivery. Now we're a very busy family of four.
June
What a roller coaster. After much praying and fasting we finally obtained our long awaited grading clearance that we needed to continue on with the project of building our house.
JulyIt was so hot and dry this summer. When building our foundation, the concrete dried almost immediately. We tried to escape the heat on the lake.
AugustBy August we were anxious for our family vacation at Lake San Antonio, but it was hardly a break from the heat.
SeptemberAfter vacation, Jon was always busy building our house. He didn't even take a break for boating or his birthday.
October
We finally got the house just barely finished enough to move in (!!!) by Halloween. We don't get any trick-or-treaters in our neighborhood though.
NovemberWe took a little trip (just the two of us) in November to celebrate our big five year anniversary.
DecemberNow Emma is crawling all around the house. Mathew enjoys being a little helper for Mom and Dad. We've all had fun with family and friends this Christmas.
We hope that 2008 brings more good times for us and all of you.
