Happy New Year!

I took Jacob, Gavin, and Casey up to Papa and GG's house to celebrate the New Year with their cousins. We really wanted to put them to bed at their normal bed time, so we could have some peaceful, uninterrupted adult time. ;) Yet, Jacob really wanted to experience New Years with all of the usual traditions. So at 8:00 sharp, we all counted down from ten to one together and shouted, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Of course, there were party hats, party blowers, and party poppers involved too. So Jacob seemed satisfied with that and we had the next four hours to ourselves. I thought that was a pretty good plan. ;)
