Happy New Year!

It's been a little while so I thought I'd better at least let you know that I'm still here for 2010! My main focus as we launch into this new year is to get the book done. I have to really concentrate on that and get it done before summer or it will be of little value.

I will also do my very best to post here at least once a week just to make it worthwhile for anyone who takes the time to check in.

We have been super blessed throughout the Christmas and New Year holidays. We've been with all three kids and all five grandkids as well as both of Ingrid's sisters and families. Who can say that we are not rich. I wish I could see more of my family in Washington, but that just doesn't seem to work out as easily. Our church is doing so well and we are so blessed to have completed ten years in Napa now. Doesn't seem possible and we're still having fun!

In my next post I'll include the poem from last week's letter to the church. As you may know I do a letter (the VIP) each week and this week I included a copy of VIP #1 along with VIP #524! Bundle them all together and you've got quite an epic!

Here's to a happy, blessed, and wonderful New Year to each and every one of you. God bless us everyone!
