Playing Catch Up

Happy New Year everyone! I realize months have passed since I have updated you on life here in SW Florida. I have resolved however to be better about keeping things current here. I do enjoy Facebook, but I also enjoy looking back myself at our blogging journey. I also realize that there are those who enjoy keeping up with us through this site, so for all of those reasons here is an overview of recent happenings of the Wickert family!

It's hard to believe that we have lived in Naples for over a year now. The time has flown by, but it has been a good year full of fun, and lots of blessings. Visits from friends and family, the kids doing well in their schoolwork, Jasen enjoying his job, getting to know the people at Naples Alliance Church, and the small opportunities for me to occasionally appear on our local FOX affiliate here. I would say the biggest blessing of all came recently in the form of the sale of our home in Tennessee! With the market being the way it is right now, we did take somewhat of a loss, but we are also thankful for the ability now to move ahead and buy a place here. 2011 has started well, and I pray it continues that way.

Here are a few pictures to capture some of our activites over the last few months!
