Happy New Year

We welcomed 2009 by celebrating with the Hammill family. This has become somewhat of a tradition over the years, although the style of our celebration has certainly changed as we have grown older and our families have expanded.


"Back in the day" we used to easily greet the dawn, and New Years Day late morning was normally spent by someone driving home after sacking out on a couch or futon.

This year Collin and JJ partied hard,

channeling Baby New Year

in their diapers and New Years top hats.

Collin decided he wanted to ring in the new year and fought going to bed, lasting all the way until about 11:00 when he finally gave in....actually, I think he enjoyed watching the adults pretend to be Guitar Heroes and showing us all up on his own guitar.

We hope you all enjoyed welcoming 2009 and wish you a year of happiness and peace in your lives.
