Happy New Year Everyone!
We spent New Year's Eve with our friends the Hines, Conleys, and Branines. The festivities included eating, playing games, laughing, and toasting sparkling 7up at the beginning of the new year. It was a great time. After watching on TV the ball fall in Times Square, I was grateful for the fact that I was with a few friends instead of trapped in Times Square surrounded by all those thousands of people. As for New Years Resolutions, TJ and I didn't make any. Although,
we heard a great message last Sun. night on new life resolutions. The message was taken out of 1 Peter 1:1-12. The message had two parts. The first part was reflecting on what had taken place in one's past spiritual life and then the second part was looking forward to new resolutions in one's spiritual life. Some of those resolutions were being mentally prepared and setting our hope fully on God's grace. Both of these resolutions and others were taken right from the text. It was a great reminder for what all Christians need to be striving for!
New year's day we spent time relaxing, shopping, and watching movies. We went to the imax with the Hines to see "Night at the Museum" - a great movie!

Looks like you all had a blast!

Julie,
I think the last post was from you, but when TJ changed the setting your name disappeared and said anonymous. Things are great here. How are your you doing? Thanks for saying "hi."

Hi guys!
Glad to hear you had a wonderful holiday season.
I met Teresa yesterday at Family Baptist Church. We were there on deputation, and she came down to stay in the nursery with Kayla during Sunday School. When I came to check on her because she was staying in there for church too, she told me she knew John and Kristen and then after she told me her last name, I knew she had to be related to you, TJ. Your mannerisms are so similar. It was fun to talk to her. I ended up staying in the nursery with her during church because Kayla was crying when I left and I didn't want her to wake up the sleeping baby.
Hope the semester is going well for you guys.
