Happy New Year!

We had our crew over for New Year's again this year. We all had a good time together. Here are the kids preparing for the countdown to midnight.

And here's the countdown.

And at least an hour of CRAZY celebrating afterwards with music and lots of noise and running around. (Matthias is laughing in this picture, not crying.)

I overheard Tad telling his friends that his New Year's Resolution is to read things more carefully before acting. (He recently ran into some trouble on a computer game when he clicked something before he read the whole thing.) I didn't even realize he knew what a resolution was. Happy 2010!
