New Years Eve...17 of them!!

This year was a little different! Usually we spend the evening with friends, or are invited to hang with family, but this year we decided that we really just wanted to stay home with eachother and have a "party" of our own! Me and the girls had just gotten over the flu, and were still feeling a little yucky, so we planned a dinner and decided to play on the Wii (our family christmas gift), and watch "Horton Hears a Who" together. Lauryn set the table...this is her favorite thing...then she helped me cook! We pulled out the camera and took some pictures, ate a great dinner, played a few games, watched the movie, then watched some of the new years specials. The girls begged for us to let them stay up, but we were mean and made them go to bed at about 10:30!! That meant we had time with eachother, reminiscing about all of the past New Years that we have speant together....can you believe 17 of them!!!! Wow! We are so lucky that God has put us together, we both can say that we honestly would not rather spend time with another person instead of eachother! We love being together! Anyway, it was a ton of fun...but we are getting too old to stay up sooo late, especially when the girls still wake up sooooo early!!!
