The kids in their New Year's hats they decorated and the adults attempted to put together.
The kids watching the movie in their jammies
It looks like it may be past Jas' bedtime... er something.
Nate thinks he's number one...
Shannon, Am and Nathan.
Davin and Collin trying to do their sparklers and noisemakers at the same time. Such concentration.
I know I'm a little slow with these pictures, but I thought it would be fun to post them anyway. We had a lot of fun on New Year's. We got together with some of our friends and had a blast playing games, laughing and eating great food. The kids had fun playing and watching Kung Fu Panda for the first time in their jammies. I was so amazed that ALL of my kids, including Nathan stayed up till midnight! I expected Nathan to crash for sure, but he just kept playing and snacking. There wasn't even whining if you can believe it! The kids loved the noisemakers and sparklers when it turned midnight. Thank you Cox's for such a fun night!
As for resolutions, I am NOT going to start any sort of diet at all! I love my chocolate too much! I do want to be a calmer mom (am I kidding myself??) and enjoy the little moments that happen more often. I want to try to do more paintings this year, just for me. I plan to get more organized and get rid of the things I just don't need. I want to attend the temple more often this year. I think I'll start with that and we'll see how it goes... What are your resolutions, if any?

Looks like you had a good New Years. And those are some good Resolutions, who needs those diets anyway, Enjoy your Chocolate in 2009. I know I will!
Your New Years looked fun. Your a nice Mom. I didn't let Carter stay up till midnight. And I'm with you on being a calmer mom. It can be a rough one.
Heres a quote for you Am...
"Whenever I speak the word Diet I wash my mouth out with Chocolate!!"
Oops I guess I better go find me some chocolate :)
Happy New Year!
It looks like you guys had a fun New Year's. You've picked some good resolutions. Especially being a calmer mom to appreciate the little moments. I need to make that one of mine! They grow up too fast.

oh and the 'i belong' buttons..the one i have right now i just made :). but i have used some from leeloublogs.blogspot.com..they have way cool stuff!
Looks like it was a fun party. We were planning on going too, then I found out we were going to have 13 members of my family here.
Cute pics Am. Resolutions?? HA. However maybe I can help you with yours, I am going to this crazy witch doctor (ok so he is just a really granola natural homeopathic healer man but witch doctor sounds more interesting)for my anxiety and if it ends up working I'll let you know. He has tons of potions and what not to calm the mind and body. We can only hope right? hehe Love you, happy new year!
Calm is simply not possible with a bunch of little ones. Nicer in my case is very much possible though, however I'm sure you're much nicer than me anyday. As for your resolution, I think the temple wins anyday over diet!
The "Strawberry" you made for Janessa's party was so cute. You are so talented! Also, for Sun. dinner we just enjoyed the pizza and cheese sticks that were left over. Also, the New Year's pictures looked like you had a lot of fun. Very Cute!
