Happy New Year!

We wish you a Happy New Year!

New Year's Eve, we celebrated with some friends in town and Hannah got to stay up to welcome the new year. Of course, she went to bed earlier, took a "nap" and then got her night-time sleep interrupted and went to the New Yr's Eve party with mommy and daddy.

I had written our short holiday letter mid-December, but never got it sent out or anything. I was at 1st waiting for a current family pic. We finally got those on the 20th, but then we left for vacation...and so once again, the letter didn't get sent out or published.

So here it is...revised a bit:

Well another year has passed, and where did the time go?! In February we had an addition to the family - Hannah joined us for the rest of our lives and eternity. We're parents forever now!

Isaac graduated in May from OU. We took an after graduation trip to Utah to see family & friends. In June, we moved to South Texas, so Isaac could work as an engineer for DuPont. Grace has been keeping busy with Hannah, home, and hobbies. Hannah's developing quickly - standard progress for a baby.

We've been making new friends, keeping busy with church (Grace is in the Primary Presidency and Isaac is in the Elder's Quorum Presidency), and continually on the lookout to purchase a house. Near the end of September, the girls left the country for 3 weeks to visit family in Taiwan. October brought more travels as Hannah's aunt Cristy got married, and the start of the holiday festivities as a 3-member-family...with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

We hope you've had a very Merry Christmas and the Happiest New Year.
