2010 has been a wonderful year in the Packer household. Here are some of the memories of 2010.
-I trained and finished in the Dallas White Rock Marathon! I beat my goal running a time of 4 hours and 37 minutes. Finally, a New Year's Resolution that I actually kept.
-Holly and I kept another New Year's Resolution by not drinking any carbonated beverages all year long! We are Dr. Pepper addicts. But we're proud to say, we did it! (If we can hold out a few more hours) Maddox actually thinks we're healthy by choice at this point in his life. By the way, we've stocked up on about 10 liters of cokes for 12:01 AM.
-Because I kept the first two resolutions, I lost 25 pounds in 2010. Let's see if I can keep up the healthy habits.
-Our family continues to grow. 2010 was a year of tremendous growth for Maddox. He went from being unable to crawl to running in 2010. We also found out that we're expecting our second child in June of 2011. We find out the gender in just over a week.
-Holly and I celebrated 6 years of marriage this year! (Yes, we were only 20 when we got married). We also celebrated a decade since our first date. I love you Holly and look forward to the next 10!
-Our sports teams were up and down this year. Football was miserable. The year started with Colt McCoy going down with an injury and the Longhorns losing the National Championship. And this fall, our Horns and Cowboys were pitiful. Baseball was a brighter spot. We had a 10-game season ticket package to the Colorado Rockies, which was a lot of fun. Also, the Texas Rangers won the ALCS!
-I was invited to teach classes at the Pepperdine Bible Lectures and ACU Summit this year!
-We took our first vacation with Holly's family to Hawaii!
-I had another great year of growth as a minister serving the Littleton Church of Christ. We are blessed to live in such a great city and imagine and dream with God about the future of his kingdom here. We're excited to see what God will do in the coming year!
I've got some great plans for 2011!
The Packers wish you grace and peace in the coming year! Happy New Year!

Love you, bro!
Hi, Collin! I need to read your blog more and comment. That should be one of my resolutions. :) I laughed so hard about the 'we've got 10 liters of coke waiting for 12:01am' line. I am way too much of an addict too, I can't believe you made it an entire year! I can't make it a day... :) Excited for you about your baby girl!
