2009 - Year in Review

We have had quite a year. We started in Sydney, Australia. My mother and brother were over and experienced a true Minnesota winter. My grandma Zee turned 90 this year! Troy has developed a growing passion for exercise, while Emma can not do enough coloring. The house has gone through quite a change. We no longer have our "Vanilla" house; it has some color! We also had the first floor decked out in hardwood. Emma had her first and second hair cut this year. She also celebrated her second birthday with Dora's backpack. Troy's interest in cooking has grown and he loves helping me in the kitchen. We spent some time with Great Grandma and Grandpa Vondra. Matt celebrated his birthday - Transformers style! Troy also celebrated his birthday with Bumblebee. We attended our last Twins Baseball game in the Metrodome with Bob, Val, Wyatt and the Vondra family of Paul, Shannon, Kaeli and Isaac. We seemed to spend every other weekend at the lake this past summer. We just love it there! Matt and I were able to get away and have some adult time in Florida for Chad and Krista's wedding. Lastly, Troy was a knight for Halloween and Emma was a ghouly witch. WHAT A YEAR!

A big thank you to everyone for making it a blessed year for us. We hope you have a great Christmas holiday, and we hope we can see you all in the new year.

Love,
The Merry Mehlbrechs
