Happy New Years to you and yours !!

Happy New Year everyone.

I seriously doubt we’ll have much traffic today as most people “I” know will be hung over - haha.

Our New Years Eve is usually the MOST low key evening of the year. Since Ron works with the tournament band for the Rose Parade each year, he’s DOG tired by the time today arrives. He’s been working very long hours trying to get the kids ready to march in the parade and having to leave our house before 4 am on New Years Day doesn’t make him much of a party animal on NYE. I don’t blame him and seriously don’t mind that we have a low key evening at all.

Zac and I will gladly bundle up on the couch this morning and watch the parade on tv … hoping to spot him during the 1-2 minutes of time that the tv cameras will be pointed at his band. The past two years they caught him waving to the crowd and smiling … and one of those years was the year it POURED. Yeah we were there in person that year … very very wet but TONS of fun and hardly crowded at all - imagine that ;).

Have you ever seen a wet parade before? I felt SO bad for all the people wearing white pants because seriously … you could see their panties.

Anyhow … the REAL reason for this post is to say THANK YOU to the loyal readers/friends and family that have supported us during our virgin year of blogging on this site. We’ve not even been here a year yet and it feels like we’ve known a lot of you forever. I am really looking forward to what 2009 has to offer ALL of us and I hope you are too
