What we did on New Year's Eve....2009



My daughter so happy we got fireworks, but she thinks they are just pretty, colorful boxes...



My Daughter playing in her sandbox New Year's Eve...



The last day of 2009 is Beautiful!

Enjoying the view....

Hi Everyone!

Well - today, which is the LAST Day of 2009, we went to Costco, bought a Nano Ipod, so I can take videos of Our Trip to Europe, we ate Lunch @ McDonalds ( drive thru) - my daughter wanted a "Happy Meal".....

Bought some Fireworks.....for tonight! It is legal here in Hawaii....and a custom in the Islands to use fireworks!

Philip and Sophie playing in The SandBox....in the yard ( yep) I have pics. to prove it... My Husband called his family in France earlier - about an hour before their New Years'!.....

In a few minutes, I'm going on the excercise bike, and the treadmill.....and of course, on the Internet checking emails, etc.....

Have a Happy & Safe New Year Everyone! God Bless!
