New Year's Eve 2011

We had a great time on New Year's Eve this year.  We never have anything to do and it is usually a big let down if we do.  This year was different!  Erin planned Amelie's first birthday party on December 31st.  She had it at 4 and continued until dark so we could do fireworks to bring in the new year.  Erin thought of everything...she had champagne glasses, confetti, silly string, and tiaras!  It was a ton of fun and I am already looking forward to next year!

Happy 1st birthday, Amelie!

The bubble wands were a hit.

Sweet little one with silly string all over his face!

Happy 2012 from the Lewis family.

Mason and Bennett had fun blowing the horns.

The Dicharry fam!  Love this one!


mommy + baby + champagne= fun New Year's Eve 2011!

Maddie and Mason were the brave ones with the fireworks.  All the other kids were scared.  
We ended our night by coming home before 8 pm, bathing the kids, and climbing in Bennett's bed for the flashlight book.  We were all asleep by 9:30!  I read a quote somewhere yesterday that said: 

“Youth is when you’re allowed to stay up late on New Year’s Eve. Middle age is when you’re forced to.” - Bill Vaughan
