New Years Eve

I was too busy having fun to take any pictures so I'll just record what we did in words this time around. Our awesome friends the Allred's offered to Host the 10:00 New Years Eve Party this year. There was plenty of really good food, drinks and friends. We set up 2 Wii's and the kids ran crazy.

In the end we kicked them off one Wii and plugged in "Just Dance 2." As married, family adults we just don't get the chance to dance all that often. It's funny what people are willing to do when everyone else is doing it. :) And when your kids are forcing you out of your chair and pushing a Wii remote in your hand you really don't have much choice (every Dad there).

We left around 10:30 and the kids were still buzzing when we got home. Some neighbors were shooting off firework so we hopped on our bikes, put glow stick bracelets on all the kids and went to the park at 11:00 at night to watch the show.

There were 2 separate homes in the neighborhood shooting them off. And we had a good laugh at the cop that kept going back and forth between the 2 trying to catch them in the act. Fireworks are not allowed in our neighborhood.

We headed home at 11:45, watched the Ball Drop in Times Square, banged pots and pans (which Sicily and Beaux were not fans of) then forced the kids into bed.

It was a good New Years Eve!
