The Countdown -- Our Christmas 2010 Newsletter


For those who do not live in Taiwan, you might already be on your Christmas vacation! AHHHHH... how nice! For us, this year Christmas is on Saturday, so we actually have time to just sit and enjoy being together as a family. What are we planning to do? We don't exchange gifts, so there won't be the madness of unwrapping presents. We will have a special breakfast? What might be on the menu? Pancakes, waffles, French toast, scrambled eggs and moon over my hammy! (That's a Denny's breakfast special which we love and make on special occasions!) But I am getting ahead of myself. This post was to review this past year...




So, what are some highlights?



Celebrating our 23rd Wedding Anniversary!


Isaiah's 12th and Abigail's 11th birthday weekend! (We won't mention ours!!!!)


Two trips to the States to see our elderly parents, family members and friends!


Isaiah's wonderful accomplishment in the English Speech Contest!


For Lovely the miracle of her passing the scooter license (She now has a license to ride a 100cc+ scooter!)



The basketball teams that Alan coaches all placed in the top four in all the competitions they joined this year.



Abby excelling in all her school subjects and her extracurricular activities (She is one busy lady!)



What are some things that didn't happen?


Alan did not join a men's Bible study.

Lovely did not publish any new books.

Isaiah did not win his track and field races.

Abigail did not join her school's T-ball or swim team.



Despite all that didn't happen, it has been a tremendously anointed and blessed year. We want to wish you all a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a VERY AMAZING NEW YEAR!



Seek Him First!
