Our Year In Review...

.:: Here is a story-in-song of what our family did last year. We hope you are inspired to make your own family memories this year and always have many blessed times to remember! Happy New Year from our family to yours::.

Wake up to the sunlight with your windows open

Don't hold in your anger or leave things unspoken

Wear your red dress

Use your good dishes

Make a big mess

And make lots of wishes

Have what you want

But want what you have

And don't spend your life lookin' back

Turn up the music

Turn it up loud

Take a few chances

Let it all out

Cause you won't regret it

Lookin' back from where you have been

Cause it's not who you knew

And it's not what you did

It's how you lived.

So go to the ball game

And go to the ballet

And go see your folks more than just on the holidays

Kiss all your children

Dance with your wife

Tell your husband you love him every night

Don't run from the truth

Cause you can't get away

Just face it and you'll be okay.

Turn up the music

Turn it up loud

Take a few chances

Let it all out

Cause you won't regret it

Looking back from where you have been

Cause it's not who you knew

It's not what you did

It's how you lived.

Oh, wherever you are

And wherever you've been

Now is the time to begin.

So give to the needy

And pray for the greiving

Even when you don't think that you can

Cause all that you do is bound to come back to you

So think of your fellow man

Make peace with God

And make peace with yourself

Cause in the end, their's nobody else.

Turn up the music

Turn it up loud

Take a few chances

Let it all out

Cause you won't regret it

Looking back from where you have been

Cause it's not who you knew

And it's not what you did

It's how you lived!
