Since I was young, my family has gone sledding on New Year’s Day. As we still have quite a bit of snow on the ground here in Utah, it should be a great day today for sledding. Happy New Year 2009!

we don’t have any new year’s traditions at all, but this year we did go sledding yesterday and it was a blast! might have to carry that one over from year to year!
There is nothing more tender than a father kissing his child. It makes me smile every time
We eat lots of snack food/appetizers all day. For my husband’s family that goes along with football watching but since my husband isn’t a huge fan it will go along with kid movie watching (gotta keep it appropriate for our almost 3 year old) and video game playing. We don’t live close enough to the snow or we might start a sledding tradition too. Sounds like a blast!
That’s so cute!! Wait — “still” have snow in Utah? You are such an optimist! When I lived there, in March we were still going sledding, hahaha!!
That is such a cute sled by the way!!
Awww That pic is priceless!
We spent time with friends last night (Nothing fancy but we did have a nice time)
We go bowling!
What a precious picture! I love your blog. What a fabulous resource. Makes me wish I were more crafty, lol. Looking forward to meeting you at Blissdom! :-)
Fun traditions. I love the bowling idea. We may have to adopt that.
What a wonderful picture! And what a special tradition. We went sledding on New Years Eve minus the baby (home with grandparents) and had such a wonderful time. I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun my 2 year old had despite the frigid temperatures! Will upload some photos of our sledding experience to my blog shortly…
