We just returned from our trip to Jamie's hometown of Olathe, KS and have welcomed in a new year.!We are extremely excited about 2008! 2007 had it's ups and some very low downs! God has been faithful through a difficult year. We lost both of Randy's grandparents, Doris and John Scott. They were great people and tremendous Christ-like examples. We know they are rejoicing in heaven and we will see them again one day. We will also see our cousin Karlee who tragically passed away in August. She was only 14, and had an unknown heart condition. This was a trying a time for our family. Please remember Uncle Brian, Patty and Chelsea in your prayers in '08.
We also have many things to be thankful for as well. Jamie has adjusted well to east coast living and enjoys her jobs at Atlantic-Bay Homes, Macy's and a girls soccer coach. Randy continues his work at Clear Channel Radio and for the Shorebirds into 2008. We are thankful for our jobs and ability to provide for each other and enjoy our time together in our home. We are also thankful for our faith and our family, we couldn't live without either!
We look forward to this new year like everyone does! We will have the normal resolutions but are committing to continue improving our relationship with each other and with God. We are excited that we will be Aunt Jamie and Uncle Randy to another child, for our commitment to our health and wellness, for a few mini-vacations, and for getting together with our friends and family as many times as we can. Here's to a great '08!Happy New Year!

OKAY , SO THE LAST POSTING MAY NOT MAKE SENSE IN THE FIRST SENTENCE, BUT GIVE ME A BREAK AS THIS IS MY FIRST BLOG POSTING. OH BOY. GREAT!
LOVE YOU GUYS
It's ok- this is the internet; nobody makes sense here.
You forgot that your favorite bro moved to another country! Maybe I thought that depressed you more than it actually did.
Happy New Year. I liked your blog comments about your commitment to one another and to God. He helps you so spend time in prayer. Prayer is the oil that keeps the machinery running smoothly. Love you lots, Grandpa and Grandma Stansbury
