hello new year's eve.

my goodness.
it's been an eventful 2008.
from getting used to a 40 hr
work week for me
to new schools for the kids and
a forever home for all of us.

the election went the way i'd hoped


a new car is added to the list of
things i adore...

and more time with family makes 2008
memorable.


here's to hoping 2009
is hiding its share of happy surprises.
