Should old acquaintance be forgot....

Last night Tim and I went to some friend's house for New Year's Eve. It was really fun to see several couples who attended our church, which closed a couple of years ago. We caught up on their lives and the lives of their children, many of whom are close in age to our kids.

Christina spent the night at a friend's, and Mark's band had a show. He called us after the show to let us know he had a ride home. We chatted with friends, ate good food, and played games till after midnight. When we arrived home after 1 (Tim had had a nap around 8, before we left for the party), Mark was safely at home. Christina had called us a little after midnight to wish us a happy new year.

Today I'm planning to stay home and get ready for Christina's family birthday party tomorrow. She wants lasagna, which I haven't prepared in a long, long time, so I think I'm going to assemble the ingredients today. Tim is leaving to get Christina before an ice storm arrives in town.

Before we know it, tax time will be upon us with its stress and busy-ness. But today, I'm going to enjoy another day of life, another year which is a gift from God.

Till next time,
