"I think Santa&amp;amp;#8217;s southern accent freaked him out. Seriously, dude had a twang. On Long Island. Happy New Year, everyone! 2009 is going to be brilliant, I can just feel it. But before we go full steam ahead into the new year, I wanted to share these shots of the 2008 holiday season. Enjoy and have a happy and healthy long weekend. Oh, and if you have fabulous plans please tell me about them. As predicted, I will be couching it on New Year&amp;amp;#8217;s Eve. Again. See you next year! Hope you like the photos&amp;amp;#8230;I realize there are none of me. Whoops!We didn&amp;amp;#8217;t have a white Christmas, but we had a white week before Christmas and it was awesome. Alex was very helpful with shoveling the driveway Best present ever: A vacuum cleaner (Alex is obsessed) from his babysitter. &amp;amp;#8220;You can get anything you want at Elmo&amp;amp;#8217;s Restaurant&amp;amp;#8221; (that song has been in my head for a week!) Santa&amp;amp;#8217;s not-so-little helper. See you next year!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
