new years eve.... 3 years later


hi... long time no see.

new years eve, new years day, cop cars, play dates with cousins, sickness, winter blues, late pregnancy hormones, and LOTS of baby preparations have happened since i last posted. if you are lucky you may see some of it it days to come. however, new years eve was of note (and the first) so i will start there.

----

this year robyn and co. were here after christmas through new years. it's been a while since they have been here at new years so we thought we'd through a party like i was 1999.... or something like that. turns our parties with 7 kids aren't as hip as we planned. but honestly, there is NO ONE i would have have rather spent it with. nannie made an amazing meal to ring in the new year.... king crab legs, prime rib, parmesan chicken (por me :) ), potatoes, rolls, jello, and an assortment of vegetables... easily enough food to last through january. most of the other williams siblings had other engagements that night and it was nice to not have the sheer insanity that is when we are all together. however, they were missed.

after a thrilling performance of 'the bandanna bandit', a play abe wrote. the kids were ready to ring in the new years.... to bad it was like 3 hours away. they were good and made it all the way to the new year, even if the 5 and under crowd were 3 sheets to the wind.

hi, i am 9 months pregnant and i have cute sisters and this one likes my pregnant belly.

as i said, we know how to party. martenellis? please.

this is greta. she has really pretty hair and loves herself some booze.

this is pretty much the only time we saw trevan all night. he laid on the floor nursing a little strep throat, a gift that kept on giving for days to come.

banging pans in the wee hours of the morning was the best part about new years to me when i was little and it seems the kids felt the same way.


and now for some new years smooching... rated NC-17.

bob & robyn
bob, do you always kiss with your eyes open?

nannie & grandpa mike

senor & yours truly.
and apparently when we kiss we suck lips.

happy new years.
