Happy New Year!!!

New Year's has come and gone and I am excited for the many new adventures that 2009 holds. We celebrated New Year's Eve with Grover's, Dad Grover planned lots of fun activities, we started with all the kids games so that we could put them to bed before it got to late. Christian and Mercedes loved playing Gator Golf, Bowling, and a fun interactive storytelling activity. They got to pick out a prize too, it was a lot of fun. We did a simple dinner, where everyone brought and appetizer and we had a fruit and veggie platter, it was nice and light and easy. For dessert Mom Grover made chocolate fondue with fruit and cream puffs, it was delicious. We played the name game, Rock Band, and other Wii games till the ball dropped and then we all got a New Year's Kiss. On New Year's Day we celebrated Joe's 28th Birthday, half of us went and played wally ball and the other half of us got to make play dough and build a fort with the kids, it was a lot of fun. We had a lovely steak dinner at the Birthday Boy's request and fruit pizza for dessert. I surprised Joe with a new 50" Samsung Plasma Television that he has been looking at for a while, thank to everyone that chipped in on it, it was a great surprised and Joe can not wait to get it mounted. Happy Birthday Joe I Love you!
