Happy New Year!

We are grateful this Holiday Season having the children and grandchildren with us. Andrew and family were with us during Christmastime. Michelle and Seth arrived in Raleigh late Thursday, December 29 to help us ringing in the New Year's.

On New Year's Day, we left Raleigh early in the morning for a two hour drive to Topsail Island for the Dolphin Dip event. As New Year tradition, Paul has participated in the event every year since 2005, our first year we have our condo at Surf City. It's quite special this year since Paul could persuade Andrew and Michelle to join him. We made it to the condo with over an hour to spare.

It was a beautiful day at the beach. The weather was in the 70s with sunny, blue sky. The water was cold though!. Paul, Andrew and Michelle did the "dip" with about a thousand others. Jen, Carter, Sawyer and I were happy to be watchers!.

We wish you a Happy 2012.
