Happy 2010 everyone!

New Year's can sometimes be so exciting and sometimes it can be such a bust. Years ago I stopped putting much enthusiasm or planning into New Year's Eve celebrations because they always seemed to disappoint. This year was a great celebration thanks to Mike and Angie opening up the doors of their home for a New Year's get-together with all of their friends.

As celebrations go it was fairly low-key: we watched the New Year's Eve battle of Alberta hockey game (Calgary Flames vs. Edmonton Oilers), watched Canada narrowly defeat the USA in World Junior Hockey, had a dip in the hot tub, played some adult snakes & ladders and rang in the new year with some champagne and hugs all around.

Happy New Year everyone and I hope 2010 finds you in good health and brings you much prosperity!
