Happy NEW YEAR!!!

I know this is a bit late, but Happy NEW YEAR everyone! We had a wonderful visit with family and friends over Christmas and New Years. I don't even know where to start. We split up time between my parents, the solversons, and Kat and Jake's. It was nice to visit with everyone as well as our friends. It's moments like these that make me miss home and even more gracious for the friendship and blessings in our lives.
Isaac had a horrible ride to Chicago. We were two hours delayed and then a lady he was playing with offered him a doubt chocolate chip cookie. He sure loved it, but couldn't sleep for the WHOLE RIDE. Even Dan was starting to get annoyed with him. One the way back, he was a lot better and able to sleep for 2 hours of the ride. Isaac is walking to much more now. I can't keep my eye on him close enough. I feel like everytime we turn around he is somehwere else! It was really funny to watch him play with our friend's kid, Nathan. By the way, thank you for the awesome breakfast and financial advice. Isaac LOVES Nathan. He keeps going back to him to give him kisses and hugs, while Nathan just stands and laughing not really understanding what Isaac was trying to do! Isaac also goth is first haircut. The poor kid was getting mullet! Thank God we finally got to cut it!
We are back now for a few days and still slowly adjusting to the time change and putting things away. It has been really rainy around here. I think the weather is finally getting to me. The best way Dan describes it is that it's like a blanket of cloub just sits on top of you and dosen't let up....please spring, please come soon!
So Sunday, we went to Kat and Jake's church and had talked about goals for the new years. Dan and I have this tradition of always brainstorming and re-evaluating our lives, walk with God, and future...I'm not quit sure how to put it all into words, but for one, to be obedient to what God has called us...
