Happy 2010!

Wow....twenty-ten! So crazy. I really like the numbers that make up 2010. Much more than 2011 or the rest of the 20-years.

Our New Years Eve was really fun! Josh and Jana came over at 7 and we started into the mountain of food and appetizers that I had bought. Potatoe skins, mozzerella sticks, sausage, cheese, crackers, chips, grapes...I bought so much food because they said their friends from Stillwater were coming over too, but then they ended up ditching us. Oh well, more for us!

We played Ryan's new board game called "Would You Rather" and it was pretty funny. You get all of these riduculous and hilarious scenarios and you have to decide which you would rather do. Like, "As a man, would you rather have your grandmother's first name or her haircut?" And "Would you rather go through life with no tastebuds or no feeling in your fingertips." We stopped playing halfway through to watch The Hangover, it was even funnier the second time around. We took shots of all kinds of stuff...tequila and Absynthe that we had bought on our cruise to Mexico. Mallory and Patrick showed up around 10pm and the party continued.

The boys decided they were going to taser each other with Jana's taser, so I filmed it with my camcorder. Patrick sucked up a bunch of helium from the balloons before he got tased, so he sounded like an Oompa Loompa being zapped.

At five minutes until midnight, we opened the champagne (I bought this new kind made by Barefoot, it was a little cheaper than the kind I usually buy and just as good!) We counted down from 10 and at exactly midnight...our TV shut off!! We were so mad! I figured out that it was because we set our DVD machine to reset at midnight every night so it can update itself, I never even thought to turn that funtion off. Haha. We popped this huge confetti shooter and my living room has never been messier. Patrick and Mallory left shortly afterwards, and Josh and Jana slept on the couch for a few hours while we went to bed.

The next morning there was stuff EVERYWHERE, but I'm so glad we finally had a New Years party at our house. And the decorations were a hit! :)
