This is the first time in 11 years that Craig and I have spent New Year's Eve together. He always had to work, and usually on the Strip! But this year his squad was on call all evening, and we were so lucky that he didn't get called out. We had a blast! Tara went to her friend's house for awhile, then to the Young Single Adult's New Year's Eve dance. Steven went to the Youth New Year's Eve dance, and Logan stayed home for his last year (he turns 14 next month) to babysit Emma and Kevin. He was a trooper, because Kevin ended up getting sick. Luckily we were just at the Lainharts around the corner, so we could get home to check on him when we needed to. The bottom picture shows all of us with our bubbly--sparkling cider!--as midnight approached. It was so much fun, but it made me miss the Gardners really bad! We talked later about our game nights we had when they were here. After they moved, the game nights just sort of died out. We keep saying we'll start doing them again, but until New Year's Eve, we haven't done it. Hopefully it won't be 11 years until we can have a fun New Year's Eve again. But if it is, that's okay, too. Craig loves his job and it takes care of us. That's really all that matters. Happy New Year, everyone!

Are you sure that was sparkling cider??????? Looks like fun, Si and I have become total DUDS. I don't think we've celebrated new years since before we were married. We did make it until 11:45 this year I believe that's the last I remember looking at the clock.
