First Night 2009

For the first time in a long time we went to a New Years Party. It was downtown at the city center- the St George First Night Party 2009. Yippee! and BRRRRRR! It was chilly!

It took 2 cars to get there because of our load of kids. I brought Chloe and Sadie, along with Corynn and 2 of her friends around 8 pm. The big girls ran off and I took the littles to the bounce houses, rode the train, tried to see the magic show, found a clown that made balloon critters for the girlies, and met up with Tony.

We watched the Karaoke singers and bought a big giant scone to keep warm. There were fireworks at 10 and then the little ones were done and ready to go. Tony had brought a car load of boys- Christian and 3 friends. He ended up bringing all the big kids home somehow in his truck and I just had my two youngin's. No one lasted till midnight at first night. It was unusually cold.

Came home, warmed everyone up, and put them to bed. Corynn fell asleep on the couch and Christian came home from his friends house around 1 am. Tony and I celebrated in a quiet house with a fire and a few noisy poppers that made a mess.

As for 2009- let's be hopeful!
*May it bring better economic news
*May it bring happy times
*May we find health
*May love fill this home and yours!!!
