Happy New Year and New Beginning

Britton and I celebrated the new year with just a few friends. I went over to my friend Kelly’s house for dinner while Britton met up with some of his friends who were visiting from Washington on Wednesday evening.


Dinner with the girls

Thursday I didn’t have to work, but he did, so I had a nice day to clean and get things in order. We have even started cleaning out, packing things up and are trying to sort through the rest of the things. Some of them are going to Goodwill, some to friends and family, some we are tossing, some we are selling on Craigslist, and hopefully just a few things will be going with us to Puerto Rico. It is a big step to finally start getting organized to move.

We haven’t moved in nearly seven years so this is  starting to make it feel real. We really don’t buy much, but somehow have amassed a pretty good chunk of junk. I have been sneezing a lot because of all the dust! How did we just leave some of these things in closets for so long! It feels good to clean and organize anyhow, but knowing that this is the start of the adventure makes it even more meaningful.

Anyway, in addition to cleaning and organizing, we also went over to a friends house in Lafayette (near Boulder) to go to a New Year’s party and play Rockband. It was really fun because they have unlocked all of the songs and even bought extra ones. I like singing to No Doubt, Steve Miller Band and Weezer overall. I also like the drums, but am not a big fan of (read: I am no good at) guitar or bass.

Overall, it was a great way to end 2009 and we are looking forward to a new, exciting 2010 and new decade to boot! I hope everyone else has a Happy New Year as well.
