New Years!

For New Years this year we wanted to do something with our friends instead of family. But we ended up just being with them for the countdown. So we went over to my aunt Lisa's and played some games and ate junk food then around 11pm we came back to our house and our friends Steph and Mark came over for the countdown and we had yummy sparkling cider and chili cheese dip with chips. Then we went outside and blew up some fireworks. Surprisingly, Cooper stayed up with us till about 1:30. I guess there was just too much going on for him to want to go to sleep. :-) Then Steve's brothers Pepe and Chico came and spent the night and we played Wii till 3 am. Only to be woken up by Cooper 5 hours later. :-) It was a fun and relaxing evening. These are the only pictures we got of the evening. We do have a video of the fireworks though, but it's too long to post.

 Happy New Year!!!
