new year's eve

a quiet evening for our family, but fun. heron & i have been sick this week, so there was little desire to go out, but had we been well i don't think we could have chosen any other way to celebrate. we feasted (thanks to jeff & cris for a new cookbook), danced to django reinhardt, billie holiday, & louis armstrong, then made home videos. just enjoyed being a family.



after heron was asleep joshy put on the googoo goggles & enjoyed a special IPA, & i my pregnancy tea. asleep before midnight, content, looking forward to the new year & all that it will hold (a new child, among other wonderful things, i'm sure)...

(josh wanted me to document his beard; it will be gone soon.)
