Happy New Year!







2010 has been a great year with a few ups and downs. Welcoming Christian to our family was a highlight, as is the prospect of a new Granddaughter in 2011. Congratulations Shannon & Chris.

Since I last blogged, we enjoyed Christmas at Desert Trails and in Pittsburgh, PA. Desert Trails had a fun holiday dance, caroling, and a luminaria night party. The people here are fantastic and we have made many great new friends. Christmas week we spent with Chris, John, John Ryan, and Annie in Pittsburgh. It was cold with pretty know on the ground. Traveling was uneventful which was lucky since a big storm blew through the east coast after we left. We even had gentle, pretty snow on Christmas morning as we opened our packages. Lots of phone calls to family back in the northwest made for a great holiday.

Tonight is the big New Years party at Desert Trails. Steak and Shrimp for dinner and champagne for midnight. Other fun surprises are planned. Should be big fun as long as we can stay awake. This is the first New Years in a long time that we haven't spent it with Doug & Diane our Brier neighbors. Feels funny to toast in a new year without them.
