2009 Slideshow

For the past four years I've made a slide show to watch New Year's Eve. It's hard to sum up a year in a hundred or so photos and a song but I try. I actually really enjoy the process, it's amazing to see how much happens in a year, especially this year. A few things to note: the tree is the Jacaranda tree we planted on my mom's birthday there's a great story behind it which I never wrote about but my sister did in her blog.

The big white flowers are dragon fruit blossoms. They bloom at night and the blossom only lasts a day. The ones in the photo bloomed the night of my mom's birthday. The jets are the blue angels which fly by our house for an airshow each Oct. John and Zoey are running to school. This was the first day of school but they run nearly every day. Some time in Dec. Will decided he was King Arthur so I made him a crown. As you can see my back healed enough to fly to Utah for Christmas. Bill and I even got away for a night to celebrate our 14th anniversary. My back continues to get better even if it's not as fast as I'd like. I'm hoping 2010 will be a year of healing.
