One More Christmas

December 26, 2009

2010 has been an interesting year, to say the least.  I’m sure many of you have experienced trials during these twelve months and challenges you did not foresee.  For us 2010 has been a year of slowing down, re-organizing and refocusing.  Simple things are often better things.  Less really is more.  Family, home and church [...]
