New Year's Eve













We spent New Year's Eve in Bloomington, God's Country! We bought the boys tickets to the Indiana vs Ohio St. game and it happened to fall on New Year's Eve. We headed up to Bloomington around noon and once we arrived there, we had free time to walk around the campus. We shopped a little and then headed towards Assembly Hall for the game. The football stadium was unlocked so we took Jake to see it. Jordan was 3 when we took him to an IU vs Michigan football game, so he had been there before. This was Jake's first time at the football field. The kids loved it because they were allowed to go on the field! They played a little football and we took tons of pics! We headed to the basketball game and ate supper. The game was so much fun, too bad we lost. We actually knew what the outcome would be when we bought the tickets but you never know! After the game, we headed to Spencer, IN. Our friends the Beard's were visiting some family there and they invited us to stay the night at their place so we didn't have to drive home on New Year's Eve. We played cards, hung out and watched the ball drop. We finally went to bed around 1:30, I felt horrible the next morning! I am too old to stay up that late! We took our time getting home, it felt like a long drive because I was so tired. We came home and took the Christmas tree and decorations down and relaxed the entire evening. We had a great New Year's Eve!

New Year's Eve '09











We celebrated New Year's Eve with my sister and her family. They were gone to Baltimore for Christmas to visit my brother-in-law's family, so we decided to spend some time together and ring in the new year. We made homemade fried chicken, grn. beans, mac-n-cheese and my sister made so many desserts, it was ridiculous! We played the Wii and Uno Attack all night. Once the kids went to bed, the four of us played The Price Is Right and Family Feud on the Wii. We had a great time spending the night at my sister's house and ringing in the new year!
