Life in the Country

Taking one day at a time with kids, cattle, and farming!



New Year's Eve 2008

on Saturday, January 3, 2009



We brought in the New Year in our own typical way.... through the back of our eyelids! We had a night at home, and Joel & Jenn and Chase came out for a full array of appetizers - ranging from fruit and dip to stuffed mushrooms to shrimp to hot wings to DQ cake. Waaayyyy too much food! The kids ate mini-cheeseburgers for 3 days afterwards! It was pretty quiet.... well except when the guys were playing Wii. They were really getting into it. They played tennis & boxing the most. I think it would be a good idea if they played more often. Between you and me, I think they are all kind of out of shape. Chase called on New Year's Day and said that his back and right arm were sore from boxing. Well if he wouldn't have acted like he was Muhammad Ali, it probably wouldn't have hurt so bad. But you can't tell them anything! When they play, they play hard.

Looks like you had a great time! We are thinking Wii next Christmas. I've never played but the kids played a little at Keely's this past weekend. Looks like fun! Happy New Year!
