Answer:
These are all things that we've experienced in the past 30 hours (+/-)!

What a day...
It's about time to start a New Year, wouldn't you say?

It's amazing to compare 2010 with last year's Christmas Eve.  In December 2009, my Grandma was recovering from a broken neck, dislocated pelvis and other injuries after a fall down a flight of stairs at home.  Look at her now!  Goes to show the power of prayer!

Handsome boys and I love the red snowflake sweater.

Aileen here...love the quiz! Sounds exactly like an Adams' list of events. Can't wait to see you in a few weeks. Planning to come to Bham for Bryan's ordination on Jan 16. xoxo
