Welcome, Welcome 2011

New Year's Eve found us celebrating

in a pretty low-key fashion

with lots of family around us.

This holiday season will be remembered for

the incredibly LARGE tree that was

so generously given to us by Steve

and Alice. It was remarkable!!

And we were lucky to have a visit
from Mr. Cash Williams himself...
(and his gorgeous Mommy, too!)

These little cousins are bound to be
buds in years to come....TOO CUTE!!

The men in the family waited out the

arrival of the new year. Bob was

pleasant....as always.

Trev was incubating a strep throat

that manifest itself the next day!

And Mike was recuperating from a bout with

the flu that kept him bedridden most of

the holiday!

But this little lady with the wild hair

was ready to party on!!

(And she strikes a pose on cue, too!)
Midnight arrived and we all had our

traditional kisses!

These lovely ladies prepared the

sparkly!

And young and old alike toasted the New Year!!

And of course it wouldn't be New Year's without

the banging of the pans!!
Fun group of party-ers....

what a great way to celebrate.

Welcome 2011...may this new decade

show us more prosperous times.

This year I resolve to be more health conscious

(thank you, Paigey!) and to spend more

time smelling the roses.

May I find more joy in the journey.

2011....It's going to be a great one!!

XOXO
