...and a Happy New Year was had by all!

Last night we fondued, and gamed, and laughed the year away with my parents...

Of course, I didn't make it quite to midnight, but I did hear the fireworks while snuggled in my nice warm bed. I think that's the best way to ring in the New Year!

And now that the Christmas season is officially over in our home, it's clean-up day. Tomorrow we have a young girl from Korea coming to stay with us for six weeks, so we want to start out with a fresh clean start. The three girls will head back to school on Tuesday and then it's business as usual around here. And by "business" I mean it's time for "my Tuesday timeout" to start up again,  of course! Yay for routine!
