New Year

We have done so much since my last post. one great thing we did was go to my parents annual New Years Eve Sleepover. Years ago when I was still in high school my parents started having their young grandchildren come sleepover on New years Eve. At that time there were three little boys who came. As the family grew the party dis too. Those three little boys are now 18 and 19 years old now. The older ones came over this year for awhile to say hi, but they did not sleepover this year. (they have more important things to do). My kids love this tradition. A few years ago I started sleeping over too. My mom won't let Anna come unless she has parental supervision. The older kids did not go to sleep until about 5:30AM, and then Anna woke up at 6:00 am. At midnight we all went outside and banged on pots and pans. The neighbors are very patient with us, they have never complained.
