Happy New Year

We hope that everyone enjoyed their New Year's celebrations. This year found us over at the Herman household. The kids all got to party early before going to bed. We had fun with umbrellas, hats, and noisemakers. All three kids were down around 8:00, which gave the adults several hours to talk and play some Wii Fit before the big countdown.

On January 1, we had to convince Jake that he should be saying "Happy New Year" instead of "Happy Halloween", but he did say the latter to at least one person at Church. The afternoon consisted of watching the Wings battle back and then dominate the Winter Classic and the Spartans look very good, but unfortunately not good enough to win their bowl game. Dan added a second TV in the living room which worked out pretty well. He had the audio on only for the hockey game, so I found the football game online too and could listen in one headphone to my notebook while listening to the hockey game with the other! As usually happens on New Year's, our photos are split between the December and January albums.
