Thanksgiving at New Years

Big excitement at our table this New Year's Eve:


Thanksgiving to New Year's passes even faster than the whoosh of the rest of the year. So this New Year's it was good to have some time to recall the many good happenings of 2008 to our family. The kids, C and I pieced together an impromptu list over dinner.
Sailing in the Virgins with grandparents
June in Hawaii
sister-in-law Carol stayed with us over the summer
M debuted on the musical stage
H and M with new ipods!
H thriving in a new school
M trying the snare drum in band
C a happy interim librarian
C finished her second century on a bike
I got wrapped up in a camera fixation
with the cub scouts at Camp Cutter and at winter camp
Visits to family in RI during business trips to Boston
built a fence with the neighbors
went from two cars to one
bought no new bicycles this year
helped neighbors get married before prop 8 passed
had a joyful Election Day






Happy New Year to all
