Poll: New Year's Plans

Hello Kids, So what are you doing to celebrate the new year? I'll go first: Friday - Going to the Bell Museum for silent movies and munchies with Francesca and a couple we really like. Then after 12 we're going to my friend Amanda's house for the yearly house party. Saturday - Going to a Women's Ball. We're hosting a table and i am SO excited about it. Luckily my Gala dress only needs minor adjustments to fit again (top part fits better now, and the bottom part just needs pinned in and it looks ok. I am VERY excited for this new year's! Life is much more exciting now. Huggles and best wishes to all, ~Lara

Friday night- we may go out with my SIL and her boyfriend, if we have a babysitter, otherwise we'll just go to MIL's and hang out there with the kids for a while....not too late- they won't last... If we go out, I don't know what we'll do-- we haven't gone "out" for NY EVER.... we used to stay home and eat loads of Chinese food. :vomit: Saturday we have a family belated Christmas Party, I'm making a quadruple batch of chili (half for this party.. and half for the one on Sunday)... I'm bringing chili, cornbread, sour cream, cheese & tortilla strips...also the last of the chocolate chip cookies I made (made these last night using up the rest of the ingredients), only 6 dozen left- Sunday, another Christmas party, one that got cancelled due to the weather here last weekend..... MONDAY, back to school! THANK GOODNESS! I'm about to send the kids out the door and shut it behind them! :-x Beth 313/298/158/130

I'm exciting for this year too! As far as celebrating, I'm just hanging out at home with the kids and my hubby and then doing a hike with some other cali OHers on Jan 2nd to start the new year right! Best wishes to you too! Rachel

I have no plans yet, which is fine. I'll probablly hang out with friends. Dianne

We're just sitting home this year. Hubby invited some of the guys from the barracks over, and we'll have some couples over as well. Just a very casual bash.

Just hanging out with my husband and son. We will rent some movies and just have some family time. I think this will be the first time in years I will have the energy to stay awake to greet the new year, my new life! Wishing us all a wonderful and blessed 2005 Sissy

Friday - None for me yet...was crusing for a party, but haven't found one. The Chinese Food idea really appeals to me though...haven't had any since surgery...except Egg Flower Soup. Saturday - Major house cleaning...need to start the New Year out with a clean house. Sunday - I am off to the Central Valley to go to my Aunt & Uncle's 50th Wedding Anniversary Renewal of their vows ceremony. Monday - I'm off to Beverly Hills for my check-up with *fingers crossed* I made it into the Century Club.

Well, my husband and I are spending a lovely evening at A' la Sofa, with a private screening of the ever popular El Cheapo Blockbustero. The children will be dining at Le Chateau de Pizza (avec beaucoup du Fromage). We are serving a rare 2004 vintage Sparkling Welch's Red for them, and they are thrilled! Hubby and I will be wrapping our lips around some exotic Patty d'une vache, most likely, with spicy pomme frites on the side (these are too exotic for my tastes, so I think I will pass on these)... My husband told me this year he was going to make the sky light up, just for me! Was I ever excited.....until he brought out the July fourth leftovers...sigh...I knew ot was too good to be true!!! On Saturday, I will be doing the ever feminine task of the brake job. Yep, I am destined to be slathered in grease (it only sounds good, ladies), changing my brake pads...sigh.. Have a great NYE!!!!

Janice- Again, you crack me up. I'll take some of the fromage! -Beth
