Ringin' in the new year



New Year's Eve was super low key, as usual. Ben and Whit were still in town, so the whole fam was together except for Lexy, who got to go to a New Year's Eve dance!! (those were the days). We made lots of delicious food (marinated flank steak kabobs, white chocolate strawberry mousse trifle, shrimp cocktail, mozzarella sticks, taquitos, mini pizzas, edamame, mini cheesecakes, punch). After we stuffed our faces, we recited our memorized poems for dad (we were supposed to do this on Christmas, but it kept getting pushed back), after which Ash and Cody left us for bigger and better things. We watched Ironman while we played Apples to Apples. I fell asleep on the couch around 11:15, then woke up again around quarter to midnight to watch the ball drop, and then promptly went to bed. I am no fun at all. What can I say, I am perpetually tired these days, I just can't help it.

It was great to ring in the New Year with the fam. Happy 2010!!
