Number 1...A New Birth--Meeting Callie Renee

It is only fitting after yesterday’s post in which we mentioned the end of life, to discuss in today’s post the beginning of life. On March 2 of this year, we had a wonderful new addition to our home. Callie Renee Robinson was born! Few events in the annals of one’s life can compare to the birth of their children. Words cannot express how miraculous a birth is, and how wonderful it is to see that new person. For nine months we waited with anticipation. We wondered what she would be like. We read to her, sang to her, and prayed for her. And when the moment finally came, we rejoiced. Without a doubt, the number one event that happened in our lives this year, was a new birth--Meeting Callie Renee Robinson!

And so there you have it. The top ten events that happened in our life this past year. If you missed any of them, be sure to scroll down the sidebar at the right and click on the December blog archive.

Deciding on the top ten was a little difficult. There were many events that happened this past year that had an impact on our lives. A few that that did not make the cut would have been the square foot garden, getting a new gas grill, getting free guitars, solving the Rubik’s cube, selling a car, celebrating Halloween, getting a new driveway, playing on the Praise Team, quitting the Praise Team, stressing over a dog problem, and even the death of Steve Irwin all made some sort of impact on our lives this past year. Of course, there were many other events that I chose not to write about that also made impacts on our lives.

As a final treat, we leave you with a link in which you can see a few random pictures from this past year. I hope the link works for you. Click HERE, then select “view pictures” then select “all” then hit “slideshow” at the top. Happy New Year!
