A New Year and a New outlook

I know for many of you 2008 has been very difficult and the year that lies ahead of us is uncertain and full of changes. I am hopeful these changes are positive for everyone. I have learned a lot this last year and once again I am reminded of whats important. Friends and Family are on the top of my list (except for 1 sister LOL!) The economy is looking shaky and I have had to narrow down the wedding to 30 guests and if you know my family then you know my little sister and her kids is almost 10 people alone! haha! Its ok. I think intimate is better for me and Jason. We didn’t have the budget for the big “to do” like we wanted. Too many things had to be reconsidered. Now it is something different all together and hopefully will be more of “Us” rather than typical wedding stuff. I am looking forward to this wonderful day with my loved ones!
