Sending Off 2007

What a fantastic time we had last night sending off 2007 in style!

A total of 9 kids and 8 adults gathered to eat, craft, run around in the dark, parade, make noise and burn things.

We had the kiddie count-down early (at 7:30) so we could all enjoy ourselves and not have to put up with cranky kids on New Year's Day. And here they are all assembled and bedecked with 2008 glasses for the count-down parade.:



And here is the parade kicking off. They paraded down to the dads warming themselves by the fire pit.



10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...Happy New Year! And the confetti went flying:



We wound down with roasting marshmallows and just warming by the fire:



Thank goodness for good friends - what a wonderful way to celebrate a Happy New Year!
