Welcome to 2009!
By Kenny and Rebekah | January 5, 2009
Welcome to 2009 everyone! We truly hope you all had a safe and awesome holiday season. Apologies for the lack of blog dedication the last couple months of 08. Once we got back from DC on November 12, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year just zipped by. We’ve also been crazy busy with work so free time has been scarce. I suppose we can begin the first post of the year with a brief recap of the past couple months…
- Our DC trip was a success. We had such a great time just working, chilling and hanging with Mark in that awesome city. (DC trip photos on our flickr account here). It seems we went just in time because Mark moved to Denver just a few short weeks later to work for NREL. Mile High City, here we come!
- New York was just AWESOME! Maybe someday we’ll catch up on the details. For now you can relive the experience by checking out our New York photos on our flickr account.
- We spent Thanksgiving in Belen with Rebekah’s fam. Amazing food, fellowship, and much needed down time.
We headed up to Santa Fe for Christmas. Thanks to a snow storm that hit Santa Fe several times over the course of that week, we had a very cold and white Christmas. It doesn’t get any better than that. Christmas was perfect: family, food, friends, faralitos, and yes, gifts ; ) The absolute best gift for Christmas was Jared and Adri’s new baby girl—our new neice—Miriam Sonja Tanner! She was born on Christmas Day at 3:15 pm. awwwwww! (We’re pretty sure we’ll be heading up to Spokane in May to see them).- Juanma, one of our best friends, celebrated his 30th birthday on the 27th! Happy Birthday again homie! We love you man.
- We took a road trip to Kansas City with Kristin over New Year to attend the One Thing conference again. We left at 7:00 pm on Saturday the 27th and drove all night (14 hours). We stayed with our AWESOME friends Steve and Amanda and their beautiful and amazing 4 month old baby girl Emmaus. It was seriously an amazing trip. We can’t think of a better way to close out the year. We got back on the 3rd. Photos to come.
Thus begins the start of a whole new year full of hope and new beginnings. We pray that yours will be filled with triumph, love, peace, growth, and a decent success rate of all those resolutions! We love you all and are truly fortunate to have each and every one of you in our lives! Be blessed, encouraged, and strengthened in the Lord.
