New Year's Rockin' EVE Baby!! :D

We had a fabulously fun New Year's Eve! Risa from Canada joined our family, Alicia and her family and our gang of usual suspects who do me the great honor of coming to our house every year to celebrate. We took a bunch of photos and the evening got sillier and sillier. I say evening..... I went to bed at 8:15 AM. Ahem. I was up again at 10:15am. What a crazy person!!! I think everyone had lots of fun! I have included a slideshow of photos but Alicia and I were just looking at them and realised that there are hardly any MEN in the shots! Well the men who come to our parties are so darned handsome that they get tired of folks asking to take their picture so we show our respect by not taking pictures during their down time! Besides they all spent a lot of time playing race cars on the Wii. :P

Here are some pics....... bet you wish you were here eh!?!? LOL!!!

Happy New Year and may 2009 bring you all your heart desires and then some more for luck! :D

New Year's Rockin' Eve, OR What happens at The Baker's stays at the Baker's....!! :D

One home, Six more here....!!!!

Thanks to some fenagling and with a little help from Diana, we managed to check Garry in at the airport for her flight, pick up Risa from the airport, visit with Diana for an hour or so, go back to the airport, drop off Garry ( : ( ) and then take Risa, via Open Harvest, back to our house where Alicia and gang arrived soon after!!!! As usual Alicia had an eventful trip to our house... THIS time her son puked all over the entire car and it's contents. Apparently 10 ( loooong ) miles later they found a gas station where they were able to clean up as much as possible.....!! :} Nevertheless....!!! Here they are and we are already having lots of fun!! ;D Rex worked until 10pm last night so it was just us girls and the kids! We had two HUGE pizzas and gallons of tea! ;D

Rex got home after the kids were in bed and we sat and talked until TWO AM !!! Yawn!!!! Everyone slept well and at 8:30 this morning Garry phoned and said she was back home safe and sound! .... I missed her right away this morning....

Anyway.... I must get on... I hear cross children's voices from the other room....!!!

Toodles!!
