New Year's 2009....

Better late than never, right?

:)

This year we were lucky enough to be invited to The Chamberlain's house to ring in the new year and celebrate with their family. We always have a GREAT time with our good friends Chris, Rachael, Macy, and Jack, and this was no exception!! We ate great food, played some fun games, had a few drinks, and even got a musical show from all of the kids!

We got to Rachael's house around 8 PM and I figured that the girls would be winding down and tired by 10 PM. Boy was I wrong! Not only did they stay up to watch the ball drop, but they were raring to go long afterwards. The adults all looked as if a train hit them.....hard. I wanted to stay awake, but my head was telling me NO.

We got home a bit after 1 PM and tucked the girls into bed. Luckily for us they slept in until almost 9 AM the next morning. HOORAY!!!!

Here are a few pics from that evening....





Then, just a few days later we had a lovely ice storm. Everything was covered and beautiful, but dang was it ~COLD~!!!! All you readers in the Southern California area (and I am talking to all 3 of you...hee-hee)....you sure you don't want to switch places with me??? Just for the rest of January and February??? Pretty please?
