Felicidades 2010

We welcomed in the new year with our Puerto Rican family. The night started off splendid when we happened upon a teppanyaki grill and had ourselves a fine New Years Eve feast. Then I learned how to cook authentic Puerto Rican dishes while Casey played pool and set off fireworks. Cash spent most of the night exhausted and delirious. He couldn't sleep with all the partying and fireworks so he was up for the countdown.


Casey's teammates bought some rather large (and loud) illegal fireworks that the boys set off. They saved the biggest and best firework--full metal jacket--for the last hoorah. And it was a sight to see. I'm talking Disneyland fireworks in the middle of the street.
We kissed. We hugged. We laughed. And then we said goodbye to a very memorable 2009. Here's to a beautiful year folks. Our best year yet.

2009 Patterson Memories:
•Lexi was pregnant with our first baby

What a chance of a life time Lexi! I am so glad you guys are living la vida loca. I sooo want to come crash your guys' paradise getaway and join in on the fun! Our Cancun work retreat got canceled last minute (liability reasons?) so I am tanned up with no beach to go to! :(
