2007 In Review: January-April

With the new year and this new blog upon me, I thought that I should review a few memories from 2007:


JANUARY

The most significant part of my year, and perhaps career, was the starting of my own law firm on January 1st. After spending the first week purchasing computers, installing software, and moving into my new office, my life finally stabilized and my practice began to thrive. I would be remiss if I didn't mention my office mates, Judy, Leigh and Vanessa at the Solo Suites Office Suites at the historic Exchange Building in St. Paul. They were all so kind, generous and encouraging to me as I started my new practice. I was sad to say goodbye at the end of July, however, as my practice moved to Maple Grove (see August below).


FEBRUARY


Katie: It's Cold in Minnesota in February, so we hibernate.

CHRIS TOMLIN CONCERT


Natasha and I went to see Chris Tomlin in Concert in February. This was a wonderful evening of praise and worship with today's pre-eminent worship leader. Even more awe inspiring was the message by Louis Giglio, a pastor/teacher who travels with Tomlin, demonstrating how :


"He's [God] [is] big enough to breathe out stars, yet intricate enough to fashion together the trillions of cells that make up every facet of who you are. The God who spoke the universe into existence made you, too, and knows everything about you. From the smallest molecule to the situation you find yourself in right now, He's aware of your circumstances and intimately acquainted with everything you do. And He cares about you and promises to carry you through."

MARCH



Katie: (almost) always cheerful.
APRIL


Jake & Kenzie: Best Buds



Easter 2007


DAD'S N' LADS

In April, Jake and Dan enjoy going to the Dads n' Lads Weekend at Camp Lebanon near Upsula, MN. Last year it rained the entire weekend so they enjoyed much better weather this year while enduring what seemed like hours and hours and hours of fishing talk by the key speakers (we are not fishermen). Jake enjoyed hanging from trees (literally) playing floor hockey (right) and carpet ball (below). Dan enjoyed spending time with Jake as well as with some friends and their sons from church.
