Favorite Things 2007

These are a few of my favorite things from the year...
  • Spending New Year's with the Black's as they settle in the desert
  • Going on a cruise with 7 other couples to Mexico, what a great trip!
  • Taking our kids on their first camping trip, even if it was freezing cold
  • Having one of my best friends, Carrie, visit from Ohio over spring break. We were even brave enough to take all 4 of our kids to Disneyland and the San Diego Zoo over a 3 day span and had a fantastic time.
  • Remodeling our casita as a surprise for Jeff while he was in Asia with his dad
  • Celebrating Brennan's 2nd birthday- he will always be our miracle baby, so every year is to be cherished
  • Watching Emerson "graduate" from daycare, and leave Miss Patty's
  • Flying to Iowa with Emerson to see another best friend, Christa and her family and have Carrie and Cameron join us as well!
  • Making our third annual trip to Catalina Island to enjoy some rest and relaxation
  • Watching both kids learn to swim
  • Serving as a bridesmaid in my best friend's, since 4th grade, wedding in Sacramento, definitely one for the memory book
  • Sharing a childhood memory with Jeff and the kids, by going to Seattle and San Juan Islands with my mom and Scott on their boat
  • Attending TWO Jimmy Buffett concerts with great friends
  • Moving my little boy to a big boy bed and watching my baby girl go to her first day of school
  • Celebrating Emerson's 5th birthday, just where has the time gone
  • Watching Emerson perform in her first Christmas Program at school, I am sure there will be many more in years to come
  • Celebrating Christmas with Jeff's family, and being able to have a white Christmas, my first ever! And introducing the kids to SNOW!!!

We hope you had a wonderful Year 2007, we know how certainly blessed we were. We hope 2008 has as many memorable times as these.

Happy New Year!

Lots of love,

The Grady's
