Here's to 2009...

Dear 2008,

You have been a challenging year to say the least.

It seems just yesterday we were ringing you in.

We gained family and lost family

We watched loved ones achieve wonderful things

and we watched those we love fight many battles out of which

came those who won, and those who lost.

We have loved, and cried, and laughed,

and learned...

and

grown together

Thank you 2008

We ushered in the new year with a few of our friends, good food, games, and fire works.

Here are a few pictures

WELCOME 2009!!!
