Two Thousand Ten.....Seriously?

Being a child of the 50's....this sounds totally like a Space Odyssey..."In the Year 2010"! 
2009 was quite a year for me....Michael and Sarah were married on March 7.....James Andrew, "Jimmy" was born June 8.....I traveled back and forth to DFW so many times that I seriously lost count.  My year was great until November 3 when I lost my Mother.  That still seems so odd to say those words....lots of healing left to do.  I miss her so much.
Here are some of my favorite pictures from the year....enjoy!

New Baby Jimmy

In DC..beautiful balls resting on the shrubs...like bubbles!
