2009

To ring in the new year, Dan and I decided to have a little party.


Everyone brought yummy appetizers and desserts and good spirits. There's nothing like celebrating with family and good friends.

It was great fun!






Just when things seemed to be winding down, the party arrived . . .


And they brought this edible work of art . . .


Good times were had by all (both small and tall) . . .


And here it is -- a brand new year!


Wishing you a year filled with hope, compassion and inspiration.

My next post will be the list of books I read in 2008. Care to hazard a guess as to how many books I read this past year? (Hint: It was more than in any previous year.)

Happy, healthy, peaceful 2009,
Donna
