Good bye {2011}

Tonight I am bringing in the new year by tucking my sweet little Bubba into his bed and hooking him up for the night, waiting for Regan to come home from a party with friends {thank you friends!! Serisously, I have the best of friends who know just what I need most when Bubba is sick, today it was taking Regan to play.} Hubs is working, and I am sitting here watching pride and prejudice. The house is quite and warm, it is nice. This week has been hard, this year has been hard, but there have also been some wonderful moments. "If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." So, rather than curse 2011 for the horrible, tear filled, long nights, crummy days I will celebrate the beautiful ones! I thought I would count down the top ten in pure Johnny Carson style. :) {Regan and Jason helped me with this list! }
