Goodbye 2011

Each year leaves us with things to remember and things we’d rather forget. 2011 was no exception.

We lost those we loved - Dearest Betsy, Dan, Spencer, Miss Daisy.

We gained new family members - Joe and Kelli.

We traveled to new places (Cambodia and Vietnam) and to old (Fort Morgan, California)

We had good things happen - weddings, parties, homecomings, connecting with family, young folks starting off on new directions in their lives.

We had some bad things happen - hospital stays and ER visits; Pat Summit with Alzheimer‘s.

So now, although the days and seasons continue seamlessly, the calendar starts over. So we’ll see what 2012 brings.

May the good overshadow the bad in the new year. I count a friendship with you one of the best things about 2011.

You've had quite a year (and I'm so behind with blog reading I seem to have missed most of yours...sigh). But I wish you a year full of blessings, love and good health to you and yours!
