Good night, 2009

Some of us are seeing the new year in with a bang

or at least a fancy party/ball...


 

^loving & sisterly after some get-ready friction about borrowing things and who's taller

Warm soup and a rousing game of monopoly by the fire for the rest of  us.

(Sam: "Mom, do we have to go in to Boston tonight?  I'd rather just stay here with you and dad.")

Sold!

Those gorgeous girls of yours are so grown up. I cannot believe how fast it happens. They are so dang beautiful!

(P.S. We rang in the new year Sam-style, too. It was so fantastic. Loved not leaving the house!)

B-E-A-UTIFUL GIRLS! ! ! What adorable young ladies they are. Heart-breakers for sure. We just want them to stay as sweet and darling as they are. Boys! They are weird. Ignore them!

Did you take the samples of a essays online service for your distinguished article? I opine that you really have unique comparison contrast essay writing ability. Thanks for that!
