Happy New Year!

We tried something new the New Years Eve. We went to a friends house for a party that included the children. Hmm, I thought it would be a great idea. Well I am not so sure now. First of all, I had a terrible sore throat, it wasn't even a sore throat it was like someone was stretching out my throat muscles, and major congestion, with a sinus headache. So I guess I didn't even go with the right frame of mind. The food was great! I ate like a hog. The men where annoying and so where the other children. About 11:30 one of the little boys ran into my ankle bone with a metal stool on wheels(it was an accident). Well with a throbbing ankle, screaming kids, and me being the only sober one. The responsible parent! I decided I had enough! I grabbed Aubrey tossed her in her jammies and got right in Joe's face and gave him the harriest eye I have ever given. And said I AM READY, go start the car. I think I scared him, because he actually listened to what I said. And the three of us where home in bed just in time to watch the ball drop. We wished Aubrey a Happy New Year she grinned with her sleepy eyes kissed us and then fell fast asleep. So it was a perfect ending to a hectic night!
