2008 was winding down and Jane
Ben
and Jane posed for final pictures
before Ben's gang came over for a rousing game of monopoly
before Ben, Joel, Kevin, Sam and Eric posed for the end of 2008
as Peter and Suzanne
Sara and Seva
Steven
and I
watched the fire
before realizing that it was time for Dick Clark's New Years Eve
as Peter
Suzanne
and Sara embraced the moment
and Ben wore the special glasses
as Dick Clark
amused Sam
Joel
Kevin
and Eric
as the countdown continued
and closed in on Suzanne
even as the folks on television
and Peter and Sara
and Peter, Sara and Steven were engaged
as Ben got his noisemaker
and glasses ready
and time counted down (47 seconds left)
(39 seconds left)
while the ball dropped (13 seconds left)
further (4 seconds left)
until the new year was upon us
and so we went back to playing Apples to Apples.
