Happy New Year!!

2009 is upon us! We had a nice relaxing night at home and had my brother-in-law and his girlfriend over. The oldest caveboy stayed up to make noise with us and watch Robbie Knievel jump his motorcycle over a mini volcano in Las Vegas. Oh, the excitement was just too much. Ooooh, awwww....

We say goodbye to 2008. Here is my ABC's of 2008

D - D.A.R.E - Kevin graduated from the D.A.R.E program this year.
E - Education - I'm always getting this with living with cavemen.
F - Forty - I went kicking & screaming, but ended up embracing being 40. I guess it's not so bad after all.

T - Tattoo - Yes, it's real. Yes, I got one for my birthday. No, I haven't lost my mind.

Y - Yawn...I find myself doing this a lot just trying to keep up with every one and every thing.
Z - Zoo. We just LOVE the new Grizzly Bear Exhibit at the MN Zoo. We also loved the San Diego Zoo too. Kevin's favorite exhibit was the snake pavilion, Sam & I enjoyed the Giant Pandas and baby panda. They are so cute. Too bad they are capable of ripping your face off, cuz they sure do look cute and snuggley!
