Blessings of 2011

Brian and I sat in adoration the other day at church and wrote down many of our blessings of 2011.

We have so much to be thankful for that happened in 2011, one being Theresa's job. The job hunt was interesting, frustrating and challenging, but I ended up starting 4 jobs, which was thrilling not to mention an amazing learning experience. However, at this point in my life, I am looking forward to just having 1 full time + 1 per diem.

Another blessing has been our car ~ we were a little reluctant to get it, but now that we have it, we love it and are so happy we have it. We still haven't driven in the snow yet, but I think that day will be just around the corner.

More thanksgiving for 2011:
  • The health of ourselves & family
  • Friendships - those in Boston and back home
  • All the wonderful people who came to visit us this year, making 2011 so memorable
  • Exploring many new places, including Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine, as well as Cape Cod
  • Housesitting opportunities
  • Theresa's 1st publication
To celebrate the end of a fabulous year and start off 2012, we went to our friends' Cory & Stephanie's party in the Seaport District of Boston. We didn't know anyone except them, but they didn't know most of the people there either (I guess one of the guests invited like 20 people). It was nice to have something to do...we also picked up dinner from a great Chinese restaurant that night before the party. We like to say Chinese food on New Years Eve is a tradition now. :)

We are looking forward to another wonderful year - we can't wait to see what God has planned for 2012!!! Happy New Year!!
