2008
Well, 2008 has almost come to a close. I thought I would update our blog since I haven't done so for a while (since football). We are so grateful to have had such an awesome year.
At this particular time in the year is when we celebrate the birth and life of the Savior. We are so grateful for His example and we are always trying to pattern our lives after Him. We know that He looks out for each and every one of us. We have been blessed abundantly in so many ways that we will always be indebted unto Him. We have strived in our lives to think, say, and do those things as if the Savior were right beside us. We bear witness that He lives today. He knows each of us and what we are capable of becoming. He atoned for the sins of the world and for that we are eternally grateful.
There are many things that have happened this year. We would like to share just a few with you.
Braedyn - enjoyed staying home with Mom and learning new things in preparation for kindergarten, kept going with taekwondo, turned 5 this year, played baseball and basketball with his dad, played his first year of flag football, started kindergarten & loves to learn new things, loves to sing all the time, made new friends in a new place, signed up for Saddleback Little League (T-ball), loves playing the Wii, and enjoys playing with his sister.
Chaylee - almost the same things as Braedyn, however, she LOVES to be with her Mom, absolutely LOVES dance & would go every day if she could, learning/preparing for kindergarten with mom, loves playing around the house with her brother, cheerleading for Braedyn's football team, started kindergarten and loves to learn, Chaylee also loves to play the Wii, loves to play house and with her babies.
Raeme - was able to stay home after we moved to OC, get the twins enrolled in preschool, started

The Sendzik's have had an up and down year, but it has been pretty good for us. We had the passing of two wonderful people in our lives this year, Grandma and Grandpa Sendzik. They will truly be missed. We've had a lot of fun going to many places this year: Vegas, St. George, San Diego, the beach, back up to Ridgecrest, out to mom's new home in Riverside, Menefee, Perris, all around Orange County, and soon out to Laredo, Texas.
We love each of you and hope that you have a prosperous new year. God bless us, every one!
