Please note:
* Mike is not that grumpy in real-life.
* I do have that annoying laugh in real-life.
* It was seriously icy. And my back muscles were sore for a few days after this ice-picking extravaganza.
Happy New Year's Eve, friends.
Hope your 2009 starts off just the way you want it to - whether it's surrounded by friends, family, clanging pots and pans, drinking champagne, or watching the ball the drop (does Dick Clark still host that? He was looking a little...plasticy the last time I saw him on New Years. Hmm.)

When I was in Indiana over Christmas there was a TERRIBLE ice storm and the local news showed kids literally skating down their street. In ice skates. Coolest thing ever.
ReplyDeleteOh my god, I almost died when you were like, "Mike, will you skate, PLEASE?!" & then he skated! Aww. It was cute. :]
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable, your laugh is adorable; & nevermind the lisp, I didn't hear it.
I hope you both have a wonderful new years! Thanks for sharing the video, too. Us Californians are scantily clad in 75 degree weather. It's nice to know there are actual seasons in other states. ;]
We have our champagne bottles chilling!
ReplyDeleteOur driveway looked like that right before Christmas. Of course my Mom and I were the ones who chipped it all. It is crazy hard work.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Years!
Oh my gosh - I hate it when it gets like that! I hope you guys didn't slip and are able to get out of the house some time soon!
ReplyDeleteHaha so funny. When I skate on the ice, I bum skate ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Ashley!

I was chipping ice like that off my car a couple Sundays ago--skating looks like waaayyy more fun. Happy New Year, Ashley!!!

ReplyDeleteLOL!! mike just SKATE wouldja!? ;) you two are adorable and that looks like hard work!! i can't imagine the entire road being covered in thick ice like that! when we lived in the mountains we'd just get patches of it and that was scary enough for me! :D
ReplyDeleteSo cute! That ice looks scary -- stuff like that keeps me off the streets for days because I'm a wuss. ;) So I'm impressed that y'all were taking care of it.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, lady! I hope it has been good so far!
Ahhh...poor Dick Clark. I felt so bad watching him this year. I think he needs to just retire from that already!
