This year we celebrated New Year's Eve differently than in years past. Even before I got 'laid up' with my broken leg I was hoping that we could find something more family oriented to do to celebrate the new year. We're just not as in to the big party thing so much anymore, mostly because we're not as close friends with the people we used to party with as we use to be (which is, more often than not, okay with me). On the 30th, Travis' friend Jamie called to see if we'd be up for visitors on New Year's Eve. So he and Becky came over with their 3 kiddos Payton, McKade and Brooklyn and brought us dinner (we've had several people bring us dinners over the past week, and it's been such a wonderful help - we're thankful to have such great people in our lives). We had kind of a late dinner and I wasn't sure if they were planning on staying until midnight or not, but by the time we were done eating there wasn't much time left to wait, the kids were playing great together and behaving very well so we did it.
