This has been a year with such big ups and downs! Here's the bad stuff...
- Mom found out she had colon cancer and had to have some major surgery, plus some "mild" chemotherapy. She seems to be bouncing back pretty well though!
- Our van broke down and needed major repairs, at a time where the money was already pretty tight. In the process of Wanda coming home, she was in a wreck that she's still trying to recover from. Lots of therapy and maybe surgery at some point (hopefully not!)
- Martha's a Junior in high school now! Not that that's really a "bad" thing, but it's that much closer to time until she's out on her own!
- Our church was without a Pastor for the first part of the year, but our great church family still stayed together strong!
- Wanda and I got to go to the Super Bowl in New Orleans from a contest I won! Never have I thought I'd be able to attend one of the biggest events in sports! And the atmosphere surrounding the game was a whole experience in itself! The game itself was also great! Plus I'll always be able to say I was at the "Blackout Bowl"!
- We also went to Charleston, South Carolina from another contest! It was for a country music festival, which I'm not really a big fan of, but it was still another great experience! An added bonus...we got to have a nice visit with Tiffy!
- God called a new Pastor to our church. He and his family have been a true blessing to all of us! And we're moving to another location in 2014, which offers us so many opportunities!
- And I am so blessed to have a wife who is perfect for me! I was given such a great lifemate! And both girls, Martha and Daisy, are amazing me more and more as they grow older! I can see so much greatness coming for them as they are turning into adults!
- Lastly, I have so many family and friends who mean so much to me and play such important roles in my life! I love all of you and treasure you greatly!
Kevin (and Wanda, Martha, Daisy, along with three crazy cats, Zippy, Angel, and Midnight!)
