Out with the old! Ready for the new!

Here's where we wrap the year up.

I'm still searching for a word to call 2009. Except for saying goodbye to Daisy, I wouldn't call it a bad year - we're all healthy, Justin has a good job, tra la la. However, this year has tested our limits and has been all around more trying than others for us. Whatever you call it, I'm happy to be putting it behind us.

Things that have tested our limits, A List!:

Vaughn. We wouldn't trade her for the world, but she's been an intense baby.
Justin's traveling. Not counting the traveling within the States, he's clocked three trips to India and one to Hong Kong.
Not having a babysitter or any nearby help with the kids.
Our geographical location. We're not digging where we are now. This one is huge and so many frustrations have stemmed from here.

Bring it on 2010. We're ready for some positive changes!
