Happy New Year!

January 4, 2011  (oops almost typed 2010)

Ahhh, the new year.  A time for reflection and resolutions.  Of course the only public resolution I am going to make is to attempt to keep this blog up...at least then others can hold me to it...hahaha. 

2010 - It has been a trying and emotional year for the Luma family, but in all honesty I wouldn't have skipped it.  It was comprised of a big move, with some tears and lots of memories, we said farewell to Morgantown, WV and drove across the country (again).  As much as I wanted to be closer to family, it was a great two years and it will be very much missed!  We had awesome adventures and amazing friends and it will forever be one of my favorite experiences!!!

Joe graduated from West Virginia University getting his Masters degree and after taking a break from full-time employment has found a great job doing something that he has wanted to do.  He will be coaching basketball at Mesa Junior this Spring, which he is so excited about it. 

I've enjoyed staying home with Brinn and watching her grow.  I've also started a job as a nanny, watching a 9-year old boy after school, it has been a fun experience and it's great that I am able to have Brinn with me.  They have learned to get along well, although it took some time in the beginning (hard to share attention when you're an only child).  I've also got some projects in the works, hopefully they will come to fruition.

Brinn is 14 months old now and growing like a weed.  She is getting smarter and smarter by the day and her knowledge just amazes me.  She is saying more words all the time and is exerting her independence.  She is definately in charge in this family. 

We have been very blessed this past year and I am looking forward to this upcoming year, it will be a great one!!  Thanks to everyone for their love and support.  We love you all!
