New Years is not our favorite holiday as it always seems anti-climatic. However this year we spent some time reflecting this past year as it has been both significant and full. RECAP: We traveled to New York, New Jersey, Las Vegas, Hawaii, Michigan & California. Jess graduated graduate school from UCLA and became a certified pediatric nurse practitioner. We celebrated our first wedding anniversary. We said goodbye to the last decade of our lives in California and moved to Denver, CO. We both started new jobs. We have both made new friends and are truly happy in the life we are creating in Denver. Everyday we recognize the good things in our lives and do not take any of them for granted. 2007 was also a year of incredible heartache and stress. We attended the funerals of both of Jess's grandparents, Matt's grandpa had a stroke, Matt had his own health scare this summer, Jess experienced more stress than she had ever known finishing up grad school and driving over 500 miles a week, & we learned marriage is hard. However the experiences of this past year taught us the resilience of the human sole and the fragility of everyday. We enter 2008 with a stronger bond and a greater love than we had a year ago. Happy New Year!
