New Years 2010~2011

On New Years Eve, we headed over to our friends house, the Garrett's, for their annual party. I can't quite figure out how many years in a row we've gone to their house on New Years Eve, but it's been at least the past 5 or 6 years. We always have lots of yummy food & we play lots of games. We also bring our kids along so we don't have to get a babysitter. They had some fun games and activities planned for all the kids.
I had forgotten my camera, so thanks to Shannon for the pics!





We usually go home shortly after midnight, but not this year! After the clock struck 12, we just kept playing and playing. We do look a little worn out in this picture though......


We started playing Nerts, and once you start, you can't stop! We ended up staying till 3:30am! That almost killed me. I can't stay up that late anymore. Especially when I'm pregnant. But somehow I did it that night! I was just having too much fun I guess.
The next day, I was happy that the whole family was able to sleep in. I slept till 11:00! It was nice. :)
Here's to 2011!!

Looks like so much fun! And does your friend have the same house layout as you? It looks pretty close.

Looks like a lot of fun. I love parties like these. We spent our weekend in Ephraim. We played "Nerts" to except they call it "Nuts". It's played a little bit differently. I was hoping to get enough practice so that when we all play again, I will some kind of a chance with you and Heidi. :)
