our year through the eyes of a blog.

2009, what a year you were, my oh my!

january
we ushered you in with fondu-apolooza!

and a new year bretzel which we all pulled from when the clock struck 12

crackers, kisses, champagne wishes welcomed 2009




we sat 6000 miles away and watched as our newly elected President was inaugurated.
local papers ran headlines of hope and excitememt for our nation, and the world.


february
was full of skiing skiing skiing and more moments that took our breath away






march
we celebrated 16 years of marriage, a month long visit from Gaia, and a surprise visit from Wisconsin family!






april
ahhh sweet springtime, how we love thee, turning 41-not so much!
taking the frost off of the birthday cake, was easter, and passover, and the trip of all vomitocious trips (thanks to a sick little 9 year old) Gaia, DoodleBug, Mr. Ben and Momma ran to the border for a weekend in Holland at the Keukenhoff Tulip Festival

"this must be flower heaven" said mr. ben, as gaia walked the first hour completely speechless...blog world, i have to say that this flower-pa-looza is a MUST SEE for your lifetime, and we will return every spring that we live in europe.

simply beautiful















my most favorite bday gift of all...the sparkly red coffee maker a la Tchibo!!


and then there came may
national junior honor society, soccer, softball, dog walks, and the beginning of the worst PCS season our harrison hearts could bear










june
will follow next year...
