2008 has been a good year. We've had some sickness, but everyone seems to be doing very good right now. So, without further ado, here is the Boyne Family 2008 Review:
January - Rick is interviewed by his college newspaper on "coin collecting".

November - Rick preaches the annual missions sermon at the Muskogee Association Annual Meeting.
December - Sally and Rick celebrate 16 years of marriage!
As I look back over this list and as I have perused my blog to remind me of what happened when, I am struck by two things: 1) how much we have been able to do with our families this year, and 2) how many friends we have had come visit us.
So, for 2008, I thank God for family and friends! May God truly bless us all in 2009!

And for sure, I thought I'd see in May or June...Rick met new blogger friend Steve Heartsill...
But no...I guess I'm always the bridesmaid and never the bride!
Happy New Year Rick!
While I understand you were talking FAMILY I must admit I was shocked you didn't go ahead and mention the Sooners.
