Happy New Year... 2013

The New Year started to ring in the night before, as the news stations added in the last of the bad news. A shooting in Old Sacramento, fireworks on hold in West Sacramento, and families told festivities are canceled. We actually took into consideration that our boys might enjoy the experience. I'm not glad we chose against going because one person ruined it for everyone. We obviously don't hang around bars so we would have been safe. The reality is that we would have paid for parking, had the night cut short, and traffic without first seeing the night sky light up. I hope next year is better...
 
 
*Crockpot Cooking*... ~*Mmm*~
 
 
 
We end each year with black-eyed peas, hammock, spices, and greens. Thankfully I have two crockpots, so we also bring in the year the same. We eat other foods normally, but the soup is there to eat through out the day. May we bring forth a prosperous new year!!!
 
 
 
The boys stayed awake with little effort. My husband had already gone to bed and set his alarm to wake in time to celebrate with the boys. Which means I was left to not just entertain but keep them out of trouble. The longer they stay up, the more irritated they become, and the more they act out. Normal behavior for children their age. We survived; they had on their hats, pulled the string on poppers, and blew the cardboard horns...
 
HAPPY NEW YEARS... 2013
 
~*Applause*~ ... ~*Cheers*~ ... ~*Praise*~
 
May 2013 bring forth prosperity, goals reached, and many more happy memories. I look forward to more quality time with those that matter the most...
