Since December of '03 we have brought the new year in with the Crabbs. We eat far too much, (order a pizza for dinner then continue munching on apps and desserts all night) play spades, and at 11:45 turn the tv on to watch Dick Clark (and now, Ryan Seacrest evidently). We pop open a bottle of champagne or sparkling apple juice, depending on the year, (thankfully, Leigh-Ann and I are on the same baby time schedule now, it helps) and watch the ball drop. Then, about 10 minutes later the visiting couple gathers their sleeping children and heads home.
Ya, we've been old and lame for some time now. :)
This year we thought we'd go a little crazy and go out to get pizza. I know, living on the edge, right? We went to one of our favorite local pizza places which had hats and goodie bags for the kids--so fun!
Anna-Kate beyond tickled at her silly daddy:
Uncle Jon and Adam being silly with hats too:
Sweet boy, loved and wore that hat almost the whole time we were there.

Sweet brother and sister:
After the kids were tucked in to bed the fun began. We broke out the food and drink. The girls are enjoying a (the best ever) drink from World Market. It' s a low calorie sparkling raspberry drink with no aspartame and only 2 grams of sugar per serving (though I may or may not have consummed more than 1 serving as we divided the bottle in half...). Anyway, yum and Cheers to 2010!
I believe it was said that the girls (who did not manage to "shine in '09" spades-wise) will "hen in 2010"...at least that's a guaruntee as we are both presently pregnant.
Goof-ball. Sadly, this is the best one...love him anyway. :)
The four of us. Sad that the boys are pretty successfully hidden behind us and our bellies.
