Happy New Year!

We were invited to spend New Year's Eve at the Arakawa's house and to our surprise, Kara and Ben stayed up until midnight to ring in the new year!  The afternoon naps probably helped a little, but I think it was all the kids and their energy that fueled our kids to stay up til midnight.  Sho and I didn't know if we were going to make it, but with a little peer pressure, we all watched the ball drop and did a big family hug!


And within minutes of getting in the car, they were out.


Even though Grandma had planned not to do a big New Year's Day celebration, the "scaled down" version included all of our favorites and we enjoyed it all.. a few times.  Isn't that what New Year's day is about?  Eating and being with people you love... and eating some more.  Here's to a wonderful new year!
