Merry Christmas from the Payne's!
2012 was a year of many firsts for our family.
-During Spring Break we took our first family trip to Green Bay
for a Lambeau Field tour, Packers Hall of Fame visit, and 2 nights at a
water park. All 3 were a great experience for all of us.
-This year Samuel and Josiah played their first year of soccer
and Levi played his first year of football. This meant that we spent a
lot of time watching and cheering on the sidelines.
-For the first time Cari received some answers, and a name
(POTS), to the persistent head pain she has experienced for many years.
Although there are still days with pain she is glad that she now has a
name for her condition. Here is an overview of POTS.
-This Summer Chris, Levi, and Samuel went to Packers training
camp for the first time. It was a great way to see the players up close
without having to attend a freezing cold game during a Wisconsin
winter.
-For the first time we added a four-legged member to our family
and yes, it is another boy. :) Major joined the family this Summer.
He is a beagle/rat-terrier mix and has been a great addition to our
family.
-Chris took his first international trip in October. He
traveled to Moldova with 3 other men to help with a church building
project and to teach and preach. Click here for a detailed blog post, and here for a photo album of the trip.
We pray that you have a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
