Happy New Year!

New Year's Eve bash at our house---food, family, friends, karaoke, games, pots and pans, and a good time!


It seems like a lot of people have commented that they hope 2009 will be better than 2008,but I must say that 2008 was a great year for our family -- full of the best memories! Here's a little recap--


January
By far the best thing that happened in 2008 was the birth of Mia Kate into our family! She was born in January and continued to be the highlight of our year.
March
Our 2 week vacation to Australia (Gavin, Mia and me) -- Queensland and Sydney. Going to Bondi beach, Gavin scuba diving for his first time in the great barrier reef, Keith Urban concert in the Sydney Opera House.

Mia's baby blessing

Goodness, I am now just looking at all you did last year. It will be hard to top that in 2009. But you are starting off the year with your cruise. We are looking forward to this next year and spending lots of time together!
