Happy New Year!

I can't believe it's 2010! Wow, where did the last 10 years go? This year has some pretty exciting prospects - I'm getting married for one! Brian is scheduled to take his exams sometime in February/March (crosses fingers) so that's another wonderful thing. I just hope this new decade will be better than the last.

We celebrated New Years Eve at Tim and Dorsie's house eating yummy food, chatting, and playing beer pong like college kids. Well, I didn't play because I don't like beer. But Brian played with Tim and they won so there was much excitement.

New Years Day we watched the Rose Parade and football, and caught up on a lot of missed sleep from the night before. On Saturday Brian and I went on a picnic together to Huntington Beach Park. We had a nice time although it got a little cold. I fed some bread to the ducks, we played frisbee, and mostly relaxed. Then we went shopping for a new fish tank part for Brian's mom, and somehow ended up buying her a fish and a snail, and ourselves a snail as well. We've had our fish for 3 years now, and strangely enough I'm really attached to them!

Sunday Brian, my Dad, and I went to Pasadena to see the Rose Parade Floats. Boy is it hot over there! The drive was fine but finding parking was really hectic. We finally got in and managed to negotiate ourselves around thousands of people. Who knew this was so popular!? There was music, drinks, food, and games. Mostly we enjoyed the floats though. Here are some of my favorites from this year:





























Hope everyone had a Happy New Year! Much love and many blessings.
