Happy New Year Everyone!

Notice me almost in tears with laughter - and this photo was taken at 1:06am!

Normally I don't look forward to the whole New Years Eve thing. Since it usually just involves going to bed and being woken up by hundreds of fireworks, but this year we were invited to a party - oh yes.

This will only be the 2nd one i've been to 'cos like I said, not a big fan! And it was at Daddy's parents' house, so we could all go together.

Fancy dress (But of course!) and they installed a rain-proof sheet between the house and the side fence, with two patio heaters just so we could mingle outside too WITHOUT the risk of getting soaked!

Big party it was, lots of drink, friends, family, neighbours etc. I let the girls choose what they each wanted to wear. J.R chose her green Tinkerbell outfit with wings and E.M chose to wear another Halloween costume (no surprise there then.) Daddy went as a priest and I went as Amy Winehouse - what a combination! Good it was, very 'eventful'.

The girls really surprised us though. Where J.R is normally the one craving attention, she went quiet. Could barely stand to be away from me. And E.M, yes Baby E.M, did all the talking. And she did not stop. She was chatting away to everyone - about everything. These were people she had never even met before...Daddy and I were very impressed.

Oh and did they make it to midnight? Nah, we took them up at about half eleven :)
