This is my Aunt Koreen getting "dinner" ready her canine kids and grandkids--minus Brandy who was in the other room. It was so fun to have dogs running around all time --especially Hurley who loves to snuggle. Nate and I definitely want dogs when we get a little more space. Anyway, the whole reason why I posted this picture is because I saw this video and it totally reminded me of my Aunt Koreen!
Jacob and I kept trying to shoot the streamers from our poppers up onto the fan--good times with the little bro.
Check out my face!! So, shortly before the ball drops my uncle Kim goes out to the garage and comes back into the house with a handful of fireworks that I'm sure can only be purchased at one of those spooky Phantom Fireworks shops on the Wyoming border. When we are all outside with our sparklers he lights a couple of those bad boys up and a few flashes of light and an explosion later I think my left eardrum exploded! Hence, the face in the picture.

I haven't made any resolutions yet but I think they will include some of the following:
Get fit, take a photography class, eat more fresh vegetables, practice the piano, commission Maggie to paint a picture of the cats, organize the office, learn some different crochet stitches, keep in better touch with out of state family, take a tropical vacation, breath deeply and remember how short and wonderful life is before I throw a tantrum when mad/upset/frustrated, collect more letters for my alphabet, get my 2008 photo book printed, spend more time with grandparents, plant cucumbers, focus on enjoying school, resist the urge to cut my hair, do something kind for someone daily, sort through old clothes and purge, enjoy every moment I have with Nate.
