Happy New Year to my friends, family and readers of RKWL! What a whirlwind 2008 has been as the first year in our new southern California life as a family. From 2008 the following is a snapshot…

  • Kids finish first time being homeschooled for the 2007-08 and enter public schooling. So far so good.
  • Both kids get braces. Ouch. Ouch.
  • We sell our house of five years we owned in Redding, CA for a decent price in this economy. Miracle.
  • I become even more geeky. We have router issues at home now.
  • My wife starts a business, or two.
  • I  pass my 4oth year in 2008! Ouch.
  • Blogging favorites like Worship Mythbusters and a new blog at Tehilla Music started.
  • I performed the wedding for my good friend Zach Tanksley.
  • My daughter entered High School, and now leads worship with me.
  • We are “post minivan” now as a family. ;)
  • Cigars are nice. Ahhh.
  • iPhones are nice, too.
  • 20th year in ministry passed me by. Wow.
  • New friends. Missing old friends.
  • A quiet small family Christmas.
  • Need for long sleeves reduced to half. New sandals, anyone?

For 2009? Let’s roll…

Disneyland: how are you spending your weekend?
