Is It Too Late For A New Years Post?

2011 was an amazing year for our family-Shaun changed departments at his job (this was a big adjustment for us b/c it is such a demanding department so he's home less), we bought a house and moved, welcomed a gorgeous nephew and a beautiful niece into our family, celebrated John Whitten's first birthday, and from April to November Shaun studied and sat for the four sections of the CPA and PASSED! 


Shaun and I are excited to see what God has in store for our family in 2012. We do not want an accidental life...we want to fulfill the purpose that God has for us and hope that our choices are glorifying to Him. 


Our 2012 Goals:

• Missions-Shaun wants to go on a mission trip in July with our church through Children's Hope Chest. We are praying that timing and finances all work out for him to go. 
• Continue to actively seek God's will for our family
• Make more time for each other; have a date night once a month.
• Find a way to get my Home Bound lady, Mrs. Heatherly to church. She misses it so much but has been too weak to make it there, I know that being able to sit in our church would make her SO happy.
• Our biggest hope/goal is that we will be able begin the adoption process at some point this year.   Shaun and I have spent a lot of time in prayer over this, and know that God's timing is perfect.

The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.

Psalm 138:8
