New Year's countdown

We are loving our New Year's tradition - a party at the Hooks' house with our friends - and best of all, we just let the kids tag along and put them to bed while we ring in the new year from the next room. This year, the kids stayed up later than they had in the past and really had a great time. Going to sleep was harder because there were a few more kids, which meant it was a more fun party! Meredith was actually still awake after midnight (although she did a pretty good job of staying in the girls room). The adults all had fun with a fun re-gift exchange and just great time with friends!

The girl's room at the beginning of bedtime. I think it dwindled down to two girls by the time we scooped Meredith up to go home!
Happy New Year!
