Happy New Year!

We took the girls to the local park last night for the town's New Year Celebration. It was a lot of fun especially for the kids. They had face painting, dancing, hula hoop contests, air hockey, Foosball and a ton of other fun things for them to do. They even had free food! We had a nice time. Mike had to take Kaylee home at about 11:00 though. She was VERY tired and was getting pretty miserable to be around! Jennah and I stayed until the Tangerine dropped! That's right, our very own New Years Tangerine drop! Who needs the big ball in NY! It's a fiberglass Tangerine hooked up to a strand of rope lights that they rigged to a pole and just like in Times square, as the clock counts down the last 45 seconds, the Tangerine drops and lights up the 2009 sign! How cool is that for a small town! Of course, everyone walks away with a bag of tangerines and some cool goodies like tee shirts, etc.
