GoOd-Bye 2010...HeLLo 2011!

we said good-bye to 2010 here at home, together. the boys requested sushi, deviled eggs, & krispy kreme {chocolate covered cream-filled} doughnuts for dinner. yep, they are my children! the boys have had a week FULL of time with friends. they've had sleep-overs, movies w/friends, shot hoops at the gym w/friends, hung out here at the house w/friends, played with them on x-box 360 {live}, etc...so we decided to bring in the new year relaxing at home, together. just us.

the boys pulled a mattress in our bedroom floor & camped out while we watched the old year leave us and the new year come. it felt like the "perfect" way to ring in the new year. my boys are growing up...and i have a sneaky suspicion that we only have a little more time that they would even want to spend new years eve with us. i love these boys. love them with all of my HeArT and soul. looking forward to making MaNy more {sweet} memories with these boys in 2011!!

my focus for 2010 was simply...peace. considering that i "know" the peacespeaker, by name, you'd think that would be easy-smeasy. well, it's a daily struggle for me. worry is my "thorn." i've grown leaps & bounds in 2010 through "his" mercy, grace, & power. this year, i'm focusing on simply...trusting. i'm pretty sure if i can accomplish this...peace will fall right into my lap. :D

~i pray that god, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. then, you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the holy spirit.~
