Happy New Year!

2009 is quickly becoming a memory as we race into the new year 2010! Here is a short update on the Lindsay family in 2009...



Bill:

• Survived layoffs and still has a job for which we are VERY grateful
  
• Loves photography but drives so much for work that he doesn't have the time for it. If you are ever interested you can see some of his pictures on flicker: http://www.flickr.com/photos/solostandfound/
  
• Wishes he could get out on his bike more often
• Loves his garage
  

Kathryn:

• Can't believe all her kids are in school and wonders why she doesn't have all the free time she thought she would have.
• Works with the YW at church and loves it.
• Plans on eating less and running more in 2010.
• Took over Bill's office and is making it into her sewing room.
  

Hannah:

• 11 years old and in 6th grade.
  
• On student leadership at school and has LOTs of friends.
• Gets along great with everybody (except when she torments her little sisters!)
• Surprised her parents by cleaning the whole house while they were out Christmas shopping! She is shaping into an EXCELLENT babysitter.
  

Eliza:

• 9 years old and in 4th grade.
• Started an acting class with her sister Hannah
• Thinks she should be allowed to wear make up
• When her Achievement Day class went ice skating last month she made her mother proud by skating with one of the girls who was having a hard time. She was patient and kind when the other girls couldn't be bothered to slow down and skate with the friend.
  

Sophia:

• 5 years old and in Kindergarten
  
• According to her teacher, she is the most popular girl in her class
• Scared her mom when she said, "All the boys in my class are hot!" Mom asked her what that means and Sophie said, "It means you want to date them!" Then Sophie got very upset when her mother told her that she is not allowed to date until she turns 16!
• Lives to play barbies, dress up and be with her friends
