Happy New Year

Wow what a great year 2008 was and I'm so excited for 2009. We celebrated New Year's Eve with a fabulous dinner at home with Mark's family. Nina was excited to be having her friend Lauren over for the night too. Mark's parents volunteered to babysit the girls for us while we went out for New Year's Eve, including getting up with Julia at the crack of dawn the next morning. Wow, a whole evening without kids to do whatever we want with no expectation of getting up early with Julia. Whatever should we do???? :) The wild crazy people we are, we partied 2minutes away at the neighbors house. Our friends Chris and Jane hosted the annual New Year's Eve party again this year. They have been busy this year finishing their basement and was all too happy to have us there last night to break it in.

On New Year's Day we had brunch at our friends Mike and Margie's new home. We had so much fun spending time with our best friends and their kids on this day. Margie's home is just beautiful. With a little boy on the way, they will have many happy years together in their new house.

Our sad news of the new year is that the Vasko's are moving to Manhattan, KS. Yea, it's not that far away but still makes us sad to see them leave KC. Todd has taken a new job at Ft Riley developing homes for the troops and their families. They are very excited about this new opportunity. We wish them well and remind them that the spare bedroom is always open for them!!

Finally, i finished off the new year by going to see Annie at the Music Hall. Gigi and i have season tickets. Just odd that this show was New Year's Night. It was a very good production.
