New Year's Eve

Ok, this should be my final "holiday" post and then I am caught up.

On New Year's Eve, some friends of ours put together a very last minute get together. Because it was last minute, we ended up driving all over the valley for our fun but it was well worth it. We started at pizza place (about 20 minutes away from our houses) where a room was reserved for our group. When all was said and done about seven families from our neighborhood got together.

After that, we headed across town to a bowling ally where someone in the group had reserved seven lanes for us. I had my best bowling night ever, scoring a 147! I beat everyone in the group with the exception of one man--an ex BYU football player. (He got a 153).

Notice my excited face in this picture.
We then ended up at a friend's house (a few houses up from ours) for the rest of the night. The little kids started fading fast and a lot of them fell asleep on my friend's dining room floor.

Fireworks at 11:00 pm and 12:00 am. (To accommodate people not wanting to stay up to midnight.)

Great fun, great friends.

147? Dang-that's awesome. I bet it felt fantastic to beat almost everyone (and, really, a college athlete? He doesn't count anyway :) ).

Happy New Year's! Here's to our half-marathon in 2010. (please motivate me, I've ran one time in the last 2 1/2 weeks)
