New Years 2009

New Years Eve started with Dan making tortilla de patatas. Yumm! We broke open our first little bottle of Cava (Spanish Champagne) and toasted to a good evening and a new year.

Dan wanted to check out what was going on in the town, but since it was chilly and drizzling, nobody was out and opted to go back to a "warm" home. Disappointing...

Well, we made the most of it. We watched a movie that brought us to 11:55pm, so we went into the living room, turned on the tv, and there stood the Madridian folks awaiting the New Year. Yes, we caught it in time and had more Cava as the "ball" dropped in Puerta del Sol.

2009 is pretty joyous! I will turn 30, I will hopefully graduate (along with Dan), and maybe I will get a job. We will see, but those are only the longer-term goals.

May God bless you and may you be ever present of His glorious works!
