Bye Bye 2007!
It's hard to believe, but 2007 is history now. Where did the time go??? To say goodbye to the year, my parents held a little New Years Eve party at their house with the family. I guess everyone had a great time...I say "I guess" because I wasn't there. I got the "privilege" of working for Roland. Woo hoo! I'm such a lucky girl! It's okay though because, in my business, if you get Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve & Christmas off...like I did...you don't complain about working New Years Eve!

Hey, we watched Mr. Bean's Holiday twice! You forgot the riveting game of "Rock Jocks" that Connor, Gavin and Aiden played.

These boys are future engineers (or Indiana Jones's). Hope the Storrs and all your boys have a happy new year! Love Poppy
p.s. I wonder if Roland has a New Year's resolution to actually get a decent haircut (hint: Roland, the 70s ended over 25 years ago!)
I am dying laughing about your dad's comment about the hair. He is just not as lucky as you are to have a great hair stylist!!! Ha ha.
