Happy New Years!



Happy New Years! It is hard to believe how fast 2009 flew by! They always say (or my Grandmother always says) how you bring in the New Year is how you end the New Year. If that's the case then we started it off right. We spent New Year's eve with our neighbors, Kate and Jeff, our new friends Asif (who also joined us for Halloween) and Amy. After going out to dinner we came back to our house for a night of ball watching, baked brie, games and champagne. For all of you MLW people, we had an excellent game of Psychiatrist as well as Celebrity and In the Manner of the word.

New Year's day was filled with family traditions. On the DeFrehn side we enjoyed pork roast, saurkraut and who could forget the champagne. On the Orndorff/Parrish side we enjoyed ham, rice and black eyed peas and Grandma's cookies. It was quite a day. Of course it wouldn't be New Years without some resolutions so here are a few of ours.

1.) Finish a triathlon each. (Sean is already registered for the Nation's Tri in September.)
2.) Disconnecting from internet/phone/work etc. and getting outside more
3.) Walking the dogs together at least once a day (yes I said dogs...more to come in the following days;)
4.)Eating better (which get's easier thanks to our neighbors)

Without a wedding to plan or a house to buy, we are excited about how open 2010 seems. We look forward to settling into our new lives and all the exciting things 2010 has in store for us. We already know the excitement and the adventure continues tomorrow. Stay tuned!
