HAPPY NEW YEAR !! 2010






Early New Year's blog-party preparations - checking the list....we'll need..champagne/glasses - oh yes, balloons 

party hats and
a clock for the countdown


ok...what else....hmmmm, food of course...






maybe a few fireworks and
a special guest to give everyone a Midnight kiss in the moonlight...who might that be - would the guests prefer anyone in particular?...silly question:)



anything else???

What a relief to realize with this well-behaved group(cough,cough;) of partygoers there's no need to worry anyone will end up like this...

On second thought, should we ask a strong fisted enforcer to keep revelers peaceful?

I love the moonlight picture. Beautiful and clever.

I'm chuckling at your description of my blog. I swore never to enter the chapel again, but here I find myself and I'm glad. Chapels can be pretty cool. :D

I'm fine with the choice for a kissing partner. I think of that Jim Brickman song Love of My Life and the line "I look in your eyes, I'm lost inside your kiss I think if I never met you. About all the things I'd miss..." Or that youtube clip Passionate Kisses...Maybe I need to take another shower, a cold one this time LMAO

Happy New Year down under! ragtag:) and to everyone. Thanks Jonia:) and to everyone who commented. Isn't Dave Barry hilarious bZirk:)

Less than 6.5hrs of 2009 to go here. We'll have a lobster tail dinner about 7PM, watch some of the Times Square revelry, and then hubby will observe a family tradition at midnight(besides kissing me of course - if he forgot that he'd start the new year with a black eye:) which is to take an aluminum pot and a large metal spoon and step unto the front porch making as much noise as possible. My father had the same tradition, but I'm content to watch from inside because it's usually about 20degrees on a warm new year's eve:)

Not sure of the origin of the new year's noise making tradition, however I remember a holiday special a few yrs back (either in Germany or Scandinavia) that showed men on a mountain top blowing loud horns to usher in the new year. Possibly a version of the same ancient ritual?

bZirk, re your comment about a chapel - my DH was in the seminary a little over one year when he found himself each morning gazing from a window at nurses stepping off a bus and entering their hospital. that's when he realized a celibate life was not for him. Thank you Lord!:)
