New Years

New Years Eve started out rocky. I got off work early and Karl and I enjoyed a nice, quite beer lunch together. Then on to grocery shopping. We came home, cleaned the house (much to my procrastinating) and then made some snackie food.

The plans were for Karl's sister and brother in law to come over. It was quickly discovered that those plans would fall through. So on to the texting. I think we texted everyone in our phone book looking for anyone that didn't already have plans for the night.

Danielle and Hannah were the first to come over. Although Hannah couldn't stay long, Danielle actually helped keep us entertained for a long while. We enjoyed a naughty game of Dirty Minds, to which she kicked our ass. Afterwards she had to leave to make sure her house guest weren't having a party without her.

Then Garson, our friend, came over. While drinking Coca-Cola (looser) he did manage to fix most of what was wrong with our computer (no longer a looser.) Karl said he stayed until about 3, at which point I had been in bed for 2 and a half hours already.

Our neighbors made it over before midnight to share in the festivities. They brought some fun with them, but I really don't remember much after 11. I really shouldn't start drinking at noon!

So moral of the story, we started out with no one here and a ton of food. But the night went on, people came, stayed, and ate almost all of the food! It ended up being a great night. Hope everyone else enjoyed their New Years Eve.

Welcome to 2009!
