We had a GREAT New Year's Eve, with some great neighbors & friends. We went down to the Call's house and barbequed with them and the Gerling's.
Taking FULL advantage of living where we do, we shot off lots of fireworks and all the kids ran around with sparklers.
It was pretty cold outside, so us girls had the men light all the fireworks... while we snuggled in the tailgates of our cars with the heaters on. Here is Leiah, her sister Maya (who was visiting from college), me, little Lydia (Leiah's daughter) peeking through in the back, Shelly and her adorable baby girl, Ambria.
The gang... Donnie, me, Leiah, James, Shelly & Jason
After shooting off the fireworks, we came inside for dessert. It was SO funny because just a few minutes after I took his picture, Kaleb's eyes blurred over and he started falling asleep right there in his seat! Just a few minutes later... he was OUT!!!We watched the ball drop and had a sparkling white grape juice toast. Kaden had asked to go to bed at 11:30, but we told him we would go home right after the toast. He ended up falling asleep during the 20 second drive home! I think we were all a bit tired at the end of the night. We had SUCH a good time!!! Thanks again for having us all over, Shelly & Jason... can't wait to do it again!! =)
