I thought I would do a quick update and post some New Years Eve pictures as well. This year we went to the Perry's to ring in the New Year. Nate ended up hanging out with friends playing games and such. It was weird to not have him with us, but, yet another sign of things to come! We had the Perrys and the Chamberlains (both former neighbors) to celebrate with and we had TONS of really great mexican food. Teresa made chile verde, and a taco/nacho bar and this amazing triffle. I brought enchildas, and a version of sweet pork ( trying to get close to Costa Vida's sweet pork...it wasnt too bad) And a cranberry/jalapeno dip. Chamberlains brought all sorts of food too and this yummy, gooey chocolate dessert creation!!
We played Tripoly and Are you smarter than a 5th grader and watched the kids play with the Wii. The girls (ciera, caitlyn, stephanie, valerie, sami and ali) all played and doorbell ditched the cute boys up the street. Nick hung out on the computer and played games with us!
All in all it was a great night. As we counted down to the New Year we all agreed that it would be OK for Dick Clark to finally retire and then we kissed our spouses and kids and toasted with martinelli's.
Our goals this year are to focus on things that are the most important and will do us the most good as a family and as individuals. It is hard getting started, but our first FHE is next week and we will define what this means to us!
Happy new year..one and all!
Cheryl
