HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

New Years Eve for us was quite an adventure. We had to stop and see both of Paul's parents and hit up 2 parties. We got to his mom's a little after 7:oo, had dinner visited for a little bit and then left about 8:45. We headed straight over to his dad's and played video games with some kids that are friends of the family. It was fun even though I wasn't very good. We ended over to a party that Paul's friends from work were having. We got there about 10:30. We just stood in the kitchen and visited for about an hour then we were off again. We were on our way over to Paul's best friends parents house and Paul was calling Paige to let her know we were on our way and that we were hoping to make it there by mid-night. When Paige didn't answer her phone Paul called her parents house and talked to her mom. She said we were more than welcome to come over. Before we got there Paige called back and said she had received a last minute invitation to hang out with her boyfriends family in West Jordan (where we were coming from). So we still went to her parents house. We got there, parked, walked inside, put on the silly hats you see below and started shouting HAPPY NEW YEAR!! We just made it. Then Paige's dad started lighting off the fireworks he picked up in Wyoming. It was a really great show. It was fun to see all the other illegal fireworks that were being shot off just a couple od streets over. We headed home a little before 1. Paul wasn't ready for bed yet so we stayed up playing Settlers of Catan and dominos until I finally convined him it was time for bed. All in all we had a great new years celebration. Here's to 2009!!
