Still here

Man, didn't realize it had been over a week since my last post. Where does the time go... um, really, where? Actually, between the Christmas festivities, and family time, we have been playing. And, that is pretty much it. My best friend and her family drove down for a spontaneous visit for a few days, which was wonderful and made us both wonder why the heck we don't get together more often. Sure, there was a 3500 mile barrier, and work, and life, but really. We need to do it more often... no excuses. I vow to make a better effort. The kids got along swimmingly, we had time to visit, and we even did a little bit of exploring. Now, I can't believe it is 2009 and we are ready to embark on another year that is sure to be filled with more adventures. We already have a few plans up our sleeves. ;) But, as we wind down on this wonderful New Year's Day, I am just filled with happiness and am glad for everything we have done and my cute little family (purposefully ignoring the screams coming from the bed of a 2 year old at the moment).

I hope your New Year is filled with as much fun and laughter and some sunshine -- like we had today.
