Good-bye 2008!

I can't believe 2008 is nearly over. I had a good Christmas vacation, visiting lots of family, eating lots of food, and opening lots of presents. In fact, we got so many DVD movies and boxed sets that Mike and I went out to Best Buy and bought a new shelving unit for all of them. Last year seemed to be the year for getting board games (we received several and gave several others as presents), but this year was certainly the year for DVDs. Now I will have plenty to watch for all those days when I'm home from school.

Mike and I spent the last few days cleaning around the apartment. Forget spring cleaning, I think people should partake in new year cleaning. We've gotten quite a bit done, but there's still plenty of paperwork to sort through and either shred or file.

Good-bye 2008! You were (like most years) a little bit of everything: happiness and new adventures with enough sadness and stress to make the good times seem even better. Here's to hoping that 2009 will be even better, with plenty of good stories for me to blog about. Cheers!!

So, how'd that party go?

The party was good. We ate lots of snacks, played some games, and watched a little bit of the Dick Clark New Year's Eve special (but only a little bit because the Jonas Brothers were a part of it).

Did you guys make it home in time to wish the kitties a happy new year?

We did. Barely.

Aww, Sis, you know you love the Jonas Brothers. Don't try to hide it.
