Happy New Year!!

Friday's Feast
Appetizer - How do you usually celebrate New Year's Eve? We usually invite a friends over. We've done that the last four years, every time we did it our friends ended up inviting us to their house instead. We asked different friends each year! I don't think there is anything wrong with our house. I think we're more portable than our friends. We travel lighter with one child who can stay awake until midnight. Our friends have multiple children with some that get tucked in much earlier. This year we're going to the same friends as last year, we invited ourselves over again. These friends are marvelous. Of the adults each of us truly enjoys the company of the other three. We are sure to laugh the night away. My son adores their children and they all get along famously. Who can ask for anything better than that?

Soup - Name one unexpected thing that happened to you in 2006. Getting a new PC for christmas! How great is that?

Salad - Where was your favorite place that you visited in 2006? Cancun. We went with the same family we will see this New Year's Eve, need I say more?

Main Course - What resolution is your top priority for 2007? Be nicer to the environment.

Dessert - Using just three words, describe 2006. Less stressful job.
I'll be out of town with no internet connection this weekend. I'll see you next year! Happy New Year!
Lazy Daisy will be back in the daisy patch soon, have you seen her new, fresh as a daisy blog template?

GREAT feast Barb! Thanks for the mention! WOW! I'm thrilled! (doesn't take much, does it?) Sounds like you will be well taken care of for New Year's Eve! Good friends are a great way to spend the evening! I just found out today that my kids want to have their friends HERE for NYE! They got a new "fire bowl" for Christmas and they're eager to try it out -- so a few friends 'round the fire I guess is going to bring in our New Year.... it'll be fun! I enjoy all the kids.

Janie - Yes, only 9, if I get 60 comments I'll do sixty. It's all up to my readers, I've abdicated my health to them. Sad, but true.

Karin - Thank you, Happy New Year to you too!

For the past 5 or 6 years, my older son (have to get used to saying that) has had some of his friends over for the night. They have a good time, I guess. We're not that exciting, though. :)

Your feast was delicious. I don't think it's your house. I think your friends think it better if it is done over at their place because as you said they have kids that have to be tucked up early. Yours can stay even past midnight. There you go. You're lucky to have such nice friends.
Happy New Year.
