Happy New Year!

Normally Rob and I head to bed and wish each other "Happy New Year" in the morning when we wake up (yep, we're boring like that).  Things have been different in recent years now that the kids are getting older.  The baby was in bed by 9, the 2 and 4 year olds followed soon after.  The rest stayed up to ring in the new year.  We were planning to head to bed soon after, but playing games and visiting with the kids just seemed like too much fun to pass up.  *Earlier in the day we had enjoyed a big holiday dinner which we had put off doing at Christmas since we were camping then.

We played a couple of games of Carcassonne and enjoyed some treats.

A couple of the kids were couch potatoes.  We let them watch some Myth Busters, while we played games.

I did head to bed around 11:30 knowing that I needed to catch some sleep while I could.  Miss A would be waking me soon enough.  The others went outside to watch fire works.
