We had a list of house projects that early Monday morning, Wesley began working on. First on his list was cleaning the garage. It took him two days to clean out and organize all that was in the garage which is quite amazing considering we had just done a mass cleaning in September.
Also on the list was to caulk the kitchen counters. Wesley tried to tackle that by himself, but Jackson soon got in on the fun! I hope it is true that two hands are better than one :-)
It wasn't all work for the week. We also enjoyed some fellowship with friends. On Tuesday night, we went over to the Underwoods house for dinner. My parents went to UT with Edith and Larry and ever since we moved to Georgia in 2004, they have taken us in. It is so nice to have a place to run for a home cooked meal with people who have known you since you were little! Wesley and I love spending time with them and so does Jackson!
On Wednesday night, we met up with the Mahadevaiah family for dinner. We met this lovely family in 2004 as well. Minutha was the first teen Wesley met when he started his job and we have loved watching her and her sister grow up over the past 5 years.
The girls gave Jackson his first suitcase - an adorable rolling bag in the shape of Lightning McQueen. Huge hit!
New Year's Eve was pretty quiet around here. The church was hosting a party but since it didn't start until 8:00 we decided to head to dinner with our friends Katey, Waylon and Alayna. We got in early and I actually crashed around 9:00. I think Wesley stayed up to watch the UT game and a movie, but think even he feel asleep before the ball dropped!Looking back on the year, we have so much to be thankful for. Wesley and I are most thankful for our sweet little Jackson and excited about what is ahead for our family as we welcome Philip in a few short weeks!
Cheers to a great 2009 and prayers for blessed 2010!
