Aren't we cute? LOL~ Here we are, toasting in the New Year 2009...JenBob style. We didn't have the appropriate wine glasses to use for the toast, I forgotten that I'd given them away last year to my sister. But that's okay, we still had the cheap, plastic hawaii glasses to use, and they were just as good.
And here's my mother and I, after we finished our midnight smooches with our handsome men. She is such a cutie, and undoubtedly has become, just over the past couple years, one of the best friends I've ever had. I can't remember the last New Years Eve that I didn't spend with her. It's been such a rough year for her, first getting the news that she had colon cancer, then spending the entire year fighting it with chemo, radiation, nasty surgery, and then even more chemo. She whispered in my ear last night that her body is completely clean of the cancer, and my heart just melt with the news. After such a long and painful fight, she has won. I can never thank the Lord enough for that. I can never thank the Lord enough for my mother, who has become so much more to me than just a mother...So....my mom recently met the nicest man that she has been teaching the piano to. His name is Les. (She thinks he looks like Mel Gibson, but I'm leaning more towards Bob's handsome Uncle Fred.) He's very cute, and loads of fun. He loves football too, so I'm really hoping that someday soon he can break my mother in... ;-) So here they are together. Hubba Hubba Mom!! Score!! ;-)
We had so much fun last night, I'll never forget it. Bob and I finally went to sleep at 2am, and woke up to the sound of NO alarm clock!! ;-) We took the tree and other Christmas decorations down ( I didnt cry this year because I'm super glad the holidays are over LOL~) I'm excited for the new year to begin. I had a ball cleaning and doing the laundry. It feels great to be organized. Life is good...
Till next entry, (and there will be more this year, I promise!)
Happy Happy Joy Joy!!
