Last Day of 2009...Once in a Blue Moon

It's December 31st, 2009...last day of the year...of the decade.  It is significant in many ways.  Tonight is a Blue Moon...Being the second Full Moon in the month.  The next Blue Moon will not be until 2012.  So I will end this year and decade with this once in a Blue Moon.  I will tip a few Blue Moon Beers to send out the old year, and welcome the new.

It's hard to believe it was 10 years ago, tonight, at the stroke of midnight, 1999, the turning of the century, that I got down on my knee and proposed to my future wife, Chris.  It seems like just a blink ago she said yes...now that we have been divorced for 3 years, that period of time seems like decades.

It was one year ago today that my beautiful daughter, Elizabeth, gave me my second grandchild, and first granddaughter, Sommer Elizabeth.  She was born around 7am last December 31st.  Now when I see her she is already walking (toddling)  She is such a beautiful little girl, looking so much like her mom.
