Happy New Year!

It's going to be a great 2008!!

We brought the New Year in quietly. Dave and I in our pajamas with a glass of champagne and some killer lebkuchen direct from Germany (Thanks Stephanie!!). We have a large dry detention basin next to our house and one of our neighbors on the opposite side put on an awesome fireworks show. What a special treat!

Our New Year's resolutions are to get physically and financially healthy in 2008... oh, and limit our Starbucks indulgence to once a week... each.

I asked Addison what he wanted to accomplish in 2008. He replied, "To not take down ANY of our Christmas decorations." (Obviously this has been an issue in our home for the last few weeks).

A key bit of trivia... What is the one New Years Resolution Dave and Amy made and kept? For at least 4 years, we have kept our resolution to not order pizza. We've tried the last 3 years to not order coffee, but it hasn't worked... If you didn't know, Starbucks puts an addictive chemical in their coffee that makes you crave for it nightly (and in the morning too!)!!!

Although this picture doesn't quite do it justice, Dave and I each year marvel at how Addison looks like Baby New Year. ;)
