Happy New Year, Baby!

Happy New Year 2009 from the new year's baby! Although we didn't stay up until midnight to ring in 2009, we had a great time visiting with old friends and playing guitar earlier in the evening. New Year's Day was relaxing spent taking a walk and playing board games. While we were immersed in a game, Ashley's mom made a cute sash for Daniel to wear as the New Year's Baby. 2008 was truly an amazing year for us and we look forward to all the good times the New Year brings us.
Some of our best memories from 2008 include:
-Discovering we were having a BOY!
-Vacation in Hawaii with Ashley's parents, Val and Jeff for Dede and Joe's wedding
-Ashley, Brian and Charley's mini-vacation at the beach house in Carpinteria
-Becoming an uncle and aunt to Ariana Rose Sanfelice!
-Preparing for Daniel (showers, pre-natal exercise classes, birth classes, decorating his room)
-Daniel's amazing birth (being able to deliver naturally and Ashley not yelling at Brian once!)
-Meeting our niece for the first time
-New baby and mommy friends
-Valerie and Jeff's incredible wedding (gaining an awesome brother-in-law)!
-All of Daniel's "firsts"- first smile, first laugh, first holidays, crawling, standing up...
-The love and support of our family and friends!!
We are so blessed...
