New Years Eve

Angie's family was in town over New Years and we were invited over to the Waite's to celebrate with fireworks.  

Emerson before the fireworks started.

Donaven actually joined in the fun this year. He normally hates anything load so I was pretty impressed. He did get the scare of his life when uncle Jon set off severall black jacks near him with out warning. He finally calmed down and was convinced to stay outside with his cousins for a few sparklers.

Emerson on the other hand went ballistic. I even tried to sit in a car with him hoping to mute the fireworks a bit, but he wouldn't calm down not even for the sparklers. I finally gave up and took him inside. 

Later that evening we all joined at Tiffany & TJ's and played telestrations all evening. That game is hilarious and I can't wait to get it ourselves.

We stayed up late and rang in 2012 together kids and all. I'm looking forward to this New Year its been a bit of a struggle. So many unknown factors and things beyond my control but I feel at peace knowing that all will work out for the best. Come what may...
