Ringing in the New Year


Some of the kids posing with their horns, hats and "2009" glasses. Every time I took a picture H would jump up and block K.

H and K with their sparklers. H said she got burned by hers and wasn't too happy about it. K LOVED them.

The balloon drop started the outdoor festivities.

M with his "2009" glasses (and Grandma)

For New Year's Eve my younger sisters threw a party for the grand kids. We met at my parents' house at 10pm (really it was only 7pm--they set the clocks ahead). The kids made noisemakers, played and ate snacks all night long. Then, at "midnight" we went outside and rang in the New Year with horns, yelling, confetti poppers, a balloon drop and sparklers provided by the Las Vegas cousins. The kids all had a great time and it was so fun to see Michael, Allison, Adam and Grace.
