New Years Eve

This year we spend New Years with my family. We went sledding in the afternoon (see previous post) then we had a party for the kids. We bobbed for donuts, played musical chairs and then at our own "midnight" we banged our pots and pans and sprayed silly string....EVERYWHERE! They had a lot of fun together. It is always a party when the cousins get together. Then we put the kids to bed and the adults played some games together. We even got my dad to play some with us. He is always the life of the party and can get us all laughing. It was a fun New Years Eve. I always get sad when the holidays are over and our families go home. Sure wish they all lived closer!

The older cousins went first to show them how it is done.


Most of the cousins minus Jax and Sadie.

Our midnight celebration. I'm sure the neighbors were wondering it we knew what time it really was!



Grandpa and Jaxston. He even got in on the festivities.

Spraying the silly string everywhere!

Wow! you caught up fast! So many fun family memories. Those are the best. We celebrated New Years in New York time. With a newborn we just couldn't stay awake for it to hit our time zone!

Look how good you are getting all caught up. Now could you get me all caught up! You have the cutest kids! And your family does fun things! We are so boring in comparison. Would you adopt my kids so they can have some fun too?

Public health officials launched an aggressive campaign, Cheap Newports, aimed at stamping out smoking in Norway. Today' s move, called " Time to quit? " (" P? tide ? slutte? "), is designed to prevent smoking' s 5,100 annual deaths. The government has set aside 19 million kroner to spend on the previously unconfirmed campaign. Norwegian Directorate of Health Director Bj?rn-Inge Larsen states he is tasked with ensuring young people today are the smoke-free generations of tomorrow, whilst motivating and helping current smokers to stop. " The campaign' s core message is that quitting smoking is good, and help is available," he says Newport Cigarettes Website.

An Australian film containing vivid scenes showing some of the consequences of smoking, including the doubled risk of strokes, will be screened on national television as part of the drive. According to health officials Newport Cigarettes, the footage, dubbed into Norwegian, has been thoroughly tested and shown to have been extremely effective in the US, Australia Marlboro Lights, and several European countries. Two additional films show the connection between smoking and lung Newport Cigarettes.
