Moms birthday and New Years Eve

What a winter break!!!!!!!!!!! We had such a good time with all of our family in town over the break. After Christmas, we had a little of down time but not much. My moms birthday is December 30 so we went to dinner with the family. Many of them were still in town. My mom chose Captain Jacks for her birthday dinner. Here are a few pictures from the night.

The birthday girl and my dad.

My mom getting her birthday cake and getting sung to.
Dad, me and Christy (Christy- please don't be mad at me for posting a picture of you)
Christy and Dave
Dave using my moms glasses to look at the bill. He is getting old : )

Kim, Grams and mom. My grandma hardly ever smiles for pictures so I was fortunate to get this one.
Dinner was very good. I had never been to Captain Jacks because I don't like seafood. I had chicken(I know, very boring). Everybody else was raving about their food.
The next night was New Years Eve. I know it doesn't sound fun, but we went to the Elks Lodge again. Between our family and friends, we had almost 30 people with us so we had a blast. Nothing better than drinking and singing karaoke with us.

This picture was supposed to be of the girls but Dave stuck his face in it at the last minute. Thanks Dave. I don't think the picture would be as good without you in it.


This is many of us singing karaoke. We sang many songs that night so I am not quite sure which song this one is. I have video of us singing but I won't torture you.

Ethan, Dave and my dad singing
You know everytime you go karaoking there is always that one person who continues to sing and is not very good but thinks they are. We had that lady. She was the friend of the DJ and was not good. This is a picture of Ethan wishing that she would stop singing. He is a little dramatic sometimes.

Happy New Year to all of you! I hope 2009 brings you all the happiness in the world.
