Hello, Hello 2010!

Happy New Year!!!!!!

Wow, what an awesome time it is right now.  I love starting new journeys.  I am so excited to see what God has in store for my family in 2010!

How was your NYE?  We had a wonderful time!  For the last two years we have hosted our friends for NYE, and in fact, last year we had a BIG party for about 25 of our closest friends.  It was a BLAST!!  After a lot of decision making, we decided to take a little break this year and ring in the new year on a much smaller scale.  Oh my goodness, I am SO glad we did!  We had a snow storm NYE!  I think I would have been so sad if we threw another big party and people weren’t able to come because of the weather.  It really turned out to be such a perfect, special night.  Here are a few pictures to share…

We started off the evening at an amazing hot spot for dinner – they have the most DELCIOUS guacamole and mojitos.

About to leave!

Hot husband alert.

Our own personal balcony for the experience.  :o)

After dinner we headed across the street to another favorite spot of ours for a few cocktails.  I just love nights that keep on going!

Then we went home and broke out some of the best champagne I have ever tasted for a kick-off toast before we headed over to a rock’n neighborhood NYE party.

…sipping the amazing champagne out of a wine glass.  I looked EVERY WHERE for our champagne glasses and couldn’t find them until, of course, the next morning.  Go figure.  But, in case you are wondering, champagne in a wine glass is still ever so tasty!

We hit up the party and had a great time with our neighbors and friends.  And, of course, we captured my favorite annual picture.  The midnight smoocharoo!

Cheers to 2010!

After a few celebratory shenanigans, we headed home and snuggled, drank wine, watched movies and soaked in the Christmas decorations we knew would be leaving our presence in the next day or so.

Sigh.  I just loveeee this time of year.  And of instead of being sad it’s over, I am thrilled that we get to start new adventures for 2010.  I can’t wait for another year with my family, taking risks and living life and seeing what God has provided for us.

HAPPY 2010!!!!
