Change

We traditionally celebrate New Year's with good friends at the Dombrowski's annual house party. Every year Ted prepares an amazing dinner for 50+ friends and this year was no different, except for some reason, the party felt "easier". Maybe because our kids are getting older, or the adults were feeling "younger". Whatever the reason, it was an evening filled with good conversation, delicious food and a muck of kids running about. We've been celebrating New Year's with the same friends for over 10 years now. And even though we may only see some of them once a year, we seem to always be able to pick right back up where we left off. Sure, some things change. Hair-styles, careers, girlfriends, and even the occasional "who's that guy" party straggler. But the things that really matter seem to always stay the same. Camaraderie, good cheer, awesome food and laughter. So, here's to 2010. Even though many of us are wishing for a changed-better 2010, here's to holding on to all the good that 2009 offered us.
