Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We will miss you very much this Christmas, and think of you often as we tour Europe. We look forward to hearing about your holidays and how God blessed you during the year.

We Love You!

Jim, Julie and Micah

Typical Holidays

After a large holiday meal, Micah is already assuming the position to which every man aspires. Hand perfectly placed to alieve the pressure of suddenly constricting pants...remote in hand, happily clicking through channels in order to find the most entertaining movie.
I hope that you have as much fun after your holiday meals as Micah.

YouTube

We are venturing into the world of YouTube to try and share some videos with those of you interested in actually seeing Micah move. Our blog site now has a link to YouTube and I am currently trying to upload and imbed the videos in our blog. Until that time, the picture of Micah laughing will have to do.

Micah and Santa: The early years

I am sure that Micah will have many more run-ins with the big guy in the red suit, but his first was very memorable. As you can see, he is more than excited to tell Santa that he wants a trip to Europe. Santa agreed that this would be a good time to take Micah, as he would make little fuss about touring churches and palaces throughout France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy. You will notice that in the photo Micah looks a bit upset. Apparently Santa had to break that bad news that a tripto Europe means he is not coming home to visit friends and family. Look, he is mad at mom and dad too!

Julie and I have less than two weeks to prepare for the trip, but as any parent would say...anything for my little boy.
