If I could summarize the entire year into one sentence...

It would have to be the title of my blog, "What fun would life be if it wasn't changing every day?" When I think back on the year, I think of it in two sections. For the first six months of the year, we lived in the same house we had lived in for a year and a half, same ward, same job, everything was stable. Brad's job even seemed stable. We had just refinanced our home and were doing great, almost out of debt, and felt like everything was.... stable.

Then came the change. Brad's company was going through a merger and the merger fell through, it didn't happen. So the company went from 250 employees to 15. Remarkably, Brad was one of those 15. We felt so blessed. Two weeks later, after all the other employees got jobs around the area, Brad was also let go after they rearranged the job responsibilities and he no longer had any. They offered to let him do a different job for 30K a year and we said, "Um, no thank you." So we went to the temple. It's a long story, but we ended up selling our home, and relocating to Cedar City with the intent to move to Saint George in December.

Some opportunities came our way through the months and we ended up back in Utah County with Brad working with a group of investors and now good friends on building a Vinyl Fence Company. He is currently the Vice President.

I feel like this year has thrown us a bunch of turns and surprises and forks in the road, and for some reason, I don't feel like its over. We are waiting on a few things to happen in these next two weeks and I'm anxious to see what life, or the Lord for that matter, has in store for us.

I will comment on what I would like to experience and/or accomplish in 2008. Which I believe will be our most exciting year yet, besides the year that we got married, that was a really really fun year :)

I will go on my long awaited cruise
I will have another child (or twins, we'll see)
I will have a new, BEAUTIFUL home, that we will be in for the ENTIRE year
I would like to read an entire book from cover to cover. (besides the book of mormon)
My hair will stay long and be past my chest by the end of the year, a great accomplishment for me!
I will be a successful investor in the stock market, helping to support our family and contribute to our savings
I will be out of debt
