BACK TO SCHOOL IN THE NEW YEAR



We closed out 2009 at the homestead with some friends, watching The Hangover, and a crazy dude jumping a car off a bridge before seeing the ball drop. 2009 was a great year, I think. We had some wonderful times together, the girls did well in school, our trip to Atlantis was fun, we added Cooper to the family, Big O made the basketball team, a fun trip to the Poconos, Bushkill Falls, NYC, and many more fun moments.

We lost Morgan in 2009, and he is missed, but his memories will stay with us forever.

The CEO and I announced our 2010 trip to the kids. A 5000 mile (holy cow - did I just say 5000 miles!!) 18 state trip around the midwest and mountain west. We are going to see 8 different baseball stadiums, Mount Rushmore, and I'm sure countless other wonderful sights. The kids seemed pretty into it, and I'm sure as it gets closer they will get more and more interested in the different places we will be visiting. We hope to have them research the cities and give some input into what they would like to see. It should be fun putting all the pieces together.

Today they went back to school. O said "I'll be in middle school next year" as she was putting her jacket on. It was as if she realized subconsciously just how quickly the time is flying by.

Here's to a great 2010 and another year of beautiful memories!!
