How can I accurately describe our past year??? God's Presence, Blessings, Good, bad, the ugly, growth, the best, the worst, couldn't be better, happy, sad, fun, not-so-fun, exciting, adventure, spiritual growth, patience, not-so-patient, hope, love......
There are really so many more words that could describe 2010 for me...but I will leave you with those!!
The one's that I hope carry on to 2011 would be... Presence of God, Adventure, Good, the best, fun, happy, exciting, growth, hope, patience & love!! But you know what??? I'm so glad we experienced all of the not so great emotions/times as well...That's what keeps me growing. And I'm SOOO FAR from being done growing. And I couldn't be happier. I pray that the year 2011 will be a year of learning, more spiritual growth, settling, contentment, more family time, more family dinners, and possibly a new camera!!! hehe!!!
So, this being my last post of 2010, I will leave you with a few fave pic's & verses that have been significant to me.... & maybe you?? xo kristen
