Our New Years Eve was mostly kid oriented this year. I did find the gingerbread house eating photos, but you can hardly see the houses. I am usually much better at taking all the important pictures, but I must have been more preoccupied this year because I feel like I missed quite a few things.
The Poggemanns and Oma Enoo joined us for what is usually a Christmas Eve tradition of walking our neighborhood to look at luminaries and Christmas lights. I just love this tradition. Someone organized this years ago and I have never seen anything like it in any other place we've lived. The paper bags with candles stretch and wind for several miles with 2 neighborhoods now participating. I would love to see what it looks like from above. Maybe some year Google Earth will be live. We actually had rain on Christmas Eve, so that is why it was postponed to New Years Eve this year.
Just before bed, Emma, Noah & Daegan Pose for a New Year's Eve Toast in their matching Christmas pajamas. They went to bed around 8:30, but they asked us to wake them at midnight. Emma was the only one who would wake up to join us for a few minutes with Ryan Seacrest before going right back to bed. Todd and I are kind of wimps when it comes to staying up late, so we went right to bed as soon as that ball dropped.
I have never been much of a resolution maker, so my only plan for 2009 is to get more sleep. I tend to get things done late at night when the kids are in bed and I think so many years of lack of sleep is starting to age me!
