wrapping up

As we get ready to start the new year, we can't help but think about all that we've experienced this year.

There were highs: buying an apartment and moving, a napa getaway... there were lows: a big, bad bump on Simon's head, loved ones lost.... There were many, many firsts: first steps, first birthday, first mother's and father's days as parents, first real injury (see lows above), first family trip.... So many memories in such a short time. It is really so hard to believe this year has come and gone. We have a lot to be thankful for, and we are.

We are also excited about what 2010 has to offer. Stay tuned - we anticipate lots more adventure ahead!!

To all our friends and family, we wish you a great night and very, very happy and healthy start to the new year!!
