We welcomed in 2011 in much the same way we have the last couple of years, at home with the girls (sorry no photos this year). Kris wasn't working this year so she actually stayed awake. And Sarah had a friend sleep over too, so it was a little crazy here.
At a minute before 11:00 we called down to the girls to turn on the TV (they were watching a DVD) if they wanted to see the ball drop in Times Square. Of course they couldn't find it and completely missed it. Alison was most upset. But ran it back on the DVR for her to watch. Then we waited around and watched the coverage on the various stations, running the tape delayed stuff again until midnight here.
At the risk of sounding old... What the hell was that garbage on the Dick Clark show? Music really has just hit the dumpster hasn't it? Kris and I watched Fox News with Rick Springfield, and the Gin Blossoms performing. Although I believe at least Train was on Dick Clark, which was a good diversion from the garbage they were playing.
At just past midnight, Kris and Ali went to bed and Sarah and her friend went downstairs to watch more movies (and I assume send their friends emails or text messages). I went to bed around 1:00 and they were still awake, so today should be very enjoyable.
Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
