HAPPY NEW YEAR!

People would be jealous of the festivities here in our household! To start with, there were nonalcoholic strawberry daquiris. First with just strawberries, then with banana, then finally with vanilla yogurt! Woohoo! After that we watched a series of tsunami shows on the discovery channel I rotated the kids through a wash cycle to help keep them awake (a bath for Sarah and showers for Thomas and Erin). After they came out we continued our TV viewing with volcano shows. We will definitely enter 2006 prepared for a natural disaster! Some where in between shows Erin could no longer wait for the fake champagne and we opened both bottles of Weis brand's fine fake champagne! Tom tried to figure out what year it was made but for some reason it wasn't marked on the bottles, hmm, wonder why! We all agreed that the fizzy apple cider was much better than the apple cranberry fizzy stuff! We made our toast to 2006 around 9:00 pm just in case we all fell asleep. BUT WE DIDN'T!! We started watching Times Square around 11:30 pm and watched the ball drop on the channel that had Regis whining away. We thought that would be better than listening to the girl who was with Carson Daley rambling on and on and on. Unfortunately, when the 2006 sign lit up, the camera was focused on Regis counting down out of synch with the actual countdown and not on the 2006 sign! We did see the ball dropping though!

BEST WISHES TO ALL!!
