New Year's Eve 2009 Picture Poem

New Year's Eve started out with a walk to Rossi Park...

...Hannah skampered, jumped, ran, rode, swung, slid, climbed, kicked, caught...

Until it was dark and time to move on...

From playing in the park to... pizza!
No snow in 'Frisco so instead you and Mommy make "Dough-men."

And walking home is full of fun;
every doorway, parking meter and person is a reason to smile.

You TRY to stay awake and say goodbye to "oHH niNe!"...

This picture says it best:
this eve is your dawn and your reaching and trying will never end,
but next that you conquer will be seen in two-thousand-AND-TEN!

Thanks for a wonderful 2009, Hannah!
Love, Mom & Dad
