New Year Starting Well

Yea, it's way early, but still.

Business wise 2010 is looking good already!

Can't really breath easy just yet (never really can when you are in business for yourself) BUT if anything, I have learned over the last year to truly keep my faith in tact and trust God.

Things are looking up.

Now, all I have to do is keep it rolling...

Football Offseason Begins....a sad day

I love football. Specifically I love Dallas Cowboys football. Today I had the kids wave by to the animated Cowboys man we leave on the fireplace daily starting each August. Their Romo jerseys will be hung up. The tailgating gear was put away in the garage and most of my Cowboys hats will be put to rest until July.

It's a sad, sad day in the life of the Speers family.

Cowboys 3, Vikings 34. Not good. Not good at all.

Here are my thoughts:

1. Wade should come back - not because I like him, but because there are no other good ones to replace him with and any change now will set things back for 1-2 years.
2. We DID improve and we have a "team" now. It has been 13 years since we have had that chemistry.
3. We have young players to build around.
4. Our defense is much improved.
5. Romo looks like he can be a winner.
6. We need to focus on a kick returner, a kicker, secondary help (Newman is totally over-rated) and offensive line help.

Next year I at least wanna get to the NFC Championship!

For now, go Saints!

Speers World Ready for All 2010 Has to Offer

Rarely I have I looked forward to a new year more than I have 2010. For the Speers clan it was a tough one in all ways. As always, God was good during the tough days 2009 brought us, but hopefully the next year will bring some much needed change.

Now 2010 is here and we are expecting a year full of joy, peace, contentment, and success.

Quinn will be three and thank God his "terrible two days" should come to an end. If not, he might find himself in permanent time-out until then. Right now "no" means "yes" and never in my life have a seen a child get into more things so fast than him...

New business plans look promsing and our plan is to work toward debt freedom and taking the kids to Disney sometime soon!

Our girls will turn 5 and are sadly growing up way too fast. But they are a complete joy and world of entertainment. I never knew 4 year olds could be so funny. Just the other day Sidney told me "Chloe just went poop and it was huge!". Neato.

The Cowboys have started off the new year with a bang and regardless of what happens now have made the end of the football season acceptable for a change!

We can only pray Dora fades away into the forever forgotten past, but for now she remains a mainstay throughout each and every long, drawn out morning of our ever living lives...

Political winds are going to lead America back to conservative values in the November elections. Don't get me started...

These things and more are in the plans for the year. Now it's just a matter of getting us there!
