Yes, I like to make lists - but I am not sure i ever have made one for a New Years Eve night at home :) There is always a first time for everything though, right?
- eat Chinese take out that Daddy is bringing home for dinner
- play games with the kiddos (which will include Pictureka & Sorry, without a doubt)
- don't let Aves sleep too long or we'll be up waaaay past Midnight
- enjoy the cheese/salsa/sausage dip in the crock pot
- drink sparkling cider from fancy (plastic) glasses
- makes lots of noise & wear our silly hats
- watch the ball drop
- see if the kids can make it until Midnight
- have fun just being together :)
In the next few days I hope to finish (or re-start) a slide show featuring some of my favorite pictures through-out 2008. I attempted to make one today, but smilebox & rockyou both crashed on me, and the one I saved in smilebox has 200+ pics and no speed control. And the speed they do have? W-A-Y S-L-O-W and let's face it...I do not even want to watch my own slideshow in *super* slow motion :) I wasted the day away on the computer trying, but that's okay. That allowed for the kiddos to play uninterrupted & make BIG messes. I'm sure they would all agree it was a fun day - and there is more to come!
Kaden is COVERED in the pox, but seems to be feeling fine. Tomorrow is the "start to be itchy" day though, so we'll see how that goes, because he seems to have them the worst yet. Poor Daddy will be the one home with him, as I am going to go to that last Christmas get-together after all. I need a break every now and then & feel lucky to have a hubby that will give it to me :)
Wishing you all a Safe & Happy New Years Eve!
Wow, you let your kids try to stay up til midnight? You're a nicer mom than I! Maybe next year (but I doubt it!)
Happy New Year Angi!

I'm a list maker too. But your New Year's list was so much more fun than ours.
We got Pictureka here too. Hope you had fun. Happy New Year!
