Happy New Year!

2009 Was quite the year for us! Grace has grown so much and continues to be a wonderful and delightful blessing in our lives! We spent the first part of our year finishing out Dave's seminary career and Heather finished her year teaching a wonderful group of first grade students! We found out we were expecting another bundle of joy later in the year.
We got to experience the Call process as Dave interviewed with several churches. In April Dave received his first call to a wonderful church in Minnesota and graduated in May. We celebrated Grace's first birthday and visited the place we would soon call home in June. July was a big month as we made the big move to Minnesota, moved into our first house, and celebrated Dave's ordination. In late July Dave began his ministry at Trinity and Heather began her new life as a stay-at-home mom! We continued to settle into our new home, looked forward to welcoming our new addition, and prepared ourselves for our first winter in Minnesota! (Well, Dave's first... :) In November we welcomed a new baby boy Elijah to the family! So thankful for our many blessings! Looking forward to seeing more blessings in 2010!
Here's our year in pictures!
