Fare thee well, 2009
/
I am breaking radio silence here at Casa de Stie. (I know. Try to contain yourselves.)
We have had a lovely holiday break, and plan on making the most of the few days we have left. It has been just a fantastic week - lots of movies, books, games, naps, and food. The Husband has been TOTALLY off the grid. We have only ventured out of the house for movies, absolutely necessary grocery store runs, and church. It's been positively heaven. I could stand this life all year long.
Of course, my house would be a wreck.
But it'd be nice to live like this a little more often.
Today I have been pouring over my photo archives -- reminiscing and laughing, cringing and critiquing. And what I decided was this: 2009 was very kind to us. So much so that I find myself on my knees in gratitude and sheer wonder at our good fortune. We've had our challenges, as every family does, but we successfully wound our way through another year -- learning, laughing, crying, and loving.
Here, to ring in the new year, are the highlights from our family. In photo form.
Happy new year, indeed.
