Merry Christmas from the Herd!

Merry Christmas and thanks for stopping by our blog. We are blessed to have such great friends and family in our life and we send you all the best for this holiday season. We would love to hear from you - leave a comment on the blog, send an email, send a text message, or you could even call us on the old-fashioned telephone.

If you are curious to know everything we did last year, feel free to check out our 2007 blog with more details and pictures you could ever want. Since our blog makes a traditional "what we've done" Christmas letter pretty unnecessary, we decided instead to share a few of our ins and outs for the year:

Happy New Blog!

We decided to make a new start on the blog, kicking privacy up just a notch. We hope you enjoy our new format, though I will certainly miss our old name around the clock.
