One of the reasons we blog is to document and remember all the things that would otherwise be pushed from the free space of our mind's hard drive. Many times this means recording the small things, the funny words, the quote sayings and faces of our lives. However, the year end is also a great time to look back and remember entire scope of the year from both a micro and a macro perspective.
2007 was a relatively calm year for our family if you compare it to others. Looking back it seems to be a year of job changes for both of us. Here are a few of the highlights....
