Oh! Every year we wait patiently (or not) for Christmas and the new year, but it seems that every year it manages to sneak up on us! God has blessed us so much this past year, I don't know where to begin....
Last year was a year of blessing...

Daddy in Ethiopia last January. Lord willing, Mommy and I will be able to travel there in March! Praise Him! |

|
I was baptized in September... |
A year of fun..
|
And many lost teeth... |
|
Lots of silliness... |
A year of birthdays and celebrations...

Happy 10th B-day! |
|
Our 4th Famiversary!! |
|
This one says it all! |
It was also a year of hardships...
You can't really take pictures of hardships, and if you could, they wouldn't be a feast for the eyes. We had flooding all summer, and believe it or not, we are going through a drought right now. We said goodbye to our cousin who joined the Airforce... And we miss him terribly! But there are the spiritually hardships, and emotional ones too. God is right there and even though it doesn't always feel like it, He works all things for good of those who love Him.
We had a year of family,friends, fun, and fellowship...
|
Vacation in MN.... |
|
Disney World! |
|
Apple orchard with good pals! |
|
|
Monday Night Football!! |

This post could go on for a year! :) Everybody is growing up so fast....We are still homeschooling, and we finished our basement renovation a few months ago, watched some friends bring their daughter into her forever family, and are excited with the friends and family who are starting the process of adoption! We made some connections with some Ethiopian and Eritrean friends, and started bringing them to church, and rejoiced when a friend serving overseas came home. (See that story
Here) With love,
The Henn's! Wishing you a Happy New Year...
