Happy Valentines Day!

I'm home today with my little valentine who is not feeling well. He has a fever of 102 and other flu symptoms and is very disappointed that he can't be in school today for the Valentines Day Party.



And look what my other valentine brought me!

Happy New Year!

Should old acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind
Should old acquaintance be forgot
And days of Auld Lang Syne

We actually stayed up until 2am! Can you believe it? Yeah. We're old. Granted, we were playing cards, not out dancing and partying, but we were awake!

So, how about those resolutions? Earlier, I posted about 'No complaints in 2008'. I guess that's a resolution. Although it's a challenge from someone else, it's something I'm choosing to accept. Adam & I didn't really make resolutions this year, but we do have goals. Is that the same thing? I guess so, but I don't feel quite as much pressure. In my mind a resolution means you have resolved yourself to see that something will take place. A goal means you have an end result in mind. Both have the same outcome, possibly by the same means. The idea of resolutions at this time of year indicate perpetual failure for most and for me definite.

Adam is starting this year off with a bang: sickly. Kabe & I headed off to Miss Judy's to watch the Rosebowl earlier today. We were so excited to watch our guys give a good fight. Watch our boys we did.... good fight.... welllll. Win some, lose some. We still love our Fightin' Illini. They'll be back next year with an even better season. Hopefully it won't be another 24 years before our next Rosebowl.
