Happy New Year - 2012!

Last year was the best of years and the worst of years... Did Dickens write something like that? Oh, well...that's the kind of year it was! =)

Our New Year Party:
We exchanged gifts, ate too much,
watched the last of the Firefly episodes, drank bubbly water, I did a sparkler, we listened to Auld Lang Syne (during a group hug/slow dance)!

Dad had 2 emergency calls, so it was a rough, late night.

This bracelet was my big present from my Parents...
