Welcome 2009!

Happy 2009!!
Gosh it is hard to believe another wonderful year has come and gone. As many of you 2008 was a fabulous year for me and I honestly could not have wished for anything to be different. I enjoyed time with all those I love, joined new groups, visited Lilly and started a blog. It was beyond wonderful and I am hopeful that 2009 will be even better!!
I hope everyone had a lovely NYE! Mine was low key and wonderful as is was spent with mother, the grandparents and cousin C. Everyone came down to our house, we had a delightful dinner from D'Amicos and watched Mamma Mia. This week has been very busy helping with the movers and get everything into place. Mother and I have also covered the movie circuit. We went to Marley and Me, Valkyrie and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. All were wonderful, but the first two were great and I highly suggest fitting either into your weekend. We are in MPLS today and I am at my cousins and therefore have access to a computer (hence the photo). I had my hair done this morning and am loving the great color job. I usually try and hold out until I am back in Edina as it is well worth the wait. We have a few more errands to run this afternoon and then we will head home with Starbucks in hand and enjoy a night with the dogs. I am reading all your blogs via the pink Curve, but am sadly unable to comment. I will be back in full force come Sunday evening/Monday morning and am excited for our 2009 journey! Enjoy the weekend and put that free time to good use!!

Hopsy, your newly coiffeured 'do is great! As the old commercials used to say, "it's bouncing and behaving hair!" Just darling!

Happy 2009, lovely!!! Thank you for the christmas card, you look amazing! My parents and Mr. W thought it was the cutest. My father didn't realize that was the Lilly Jeep and not YOUR Jeep, so he said "I feel like I would have recognized that Jeep around West Village, had I seen it?" haha I hope 2009 brings you everything you hope for, and more. Here's to another meetup sometome (hopefully) soon? ;)
xoxo,
Lulu

Happy New Year! After viewing you blog several times. I can say that I like your style. I think I have become a LILY fan. I just need to puirchase some pieces. Have any favorites in mind. I like the way you rock the scarps around your neck. I purchased a couple for christmas, but the only thing is I really don't know how to tie them so that they don't fall. Any suggestion!

Happy New Year! Welcome home!
I wanted to let you know..I went to I Heart Yogurt today and they are opening two new stores....one in Inwood Village where the old Ice Cream store was(facing Lover's Lane) and another one in Snyder Plaza...both are closer to me, so that makes me happy!
