new years eve 2009

first things first: Christmas was wonderful.

Alex got lots of toys, clothing & etc etc. she was asleep for most of it, but she did help unwrap a blanket. good times. and thanks to the husband, we were able to get some lovely video thanks to the camcorder he got me!
i also got my Garmin (yay!) and my Sodastream (drool) and a bunch of other stuff. woot.

hmmm- and here's some pictures:

and then my best friends & i did Christmas yesterday:

and that's that. i'd love to type out a year in review, but i'm lazy, so i'll sum it up:

...and that's 2009.
