Ringing in the New Year!

Hello 2012!
The kids were so excited for the "countdown" to midnight ...NYC time. They waited (im)patiently all day and decorated (made a mess) the house with their own confetti from these necklace things.Finally our friends the Hill's arrived to celebrate with us but the countdown was still hours away...TORTURE! We almost did a fake countdown at 7:00 just to end the madness. However, 9:00 finally came and they were able to count down, watch the ball drop, and blow their rather loud horns. We then released them outside with sparklers and silly string.
I think I had them in bed in record time after that.
It was a rather loud and crazy evening but of course lots of fun.

2011 was a great year for us and the future is very bright from where we stand.
Here's to a great year!
