Dresses, PJs and Champagne

I am sure anyone who has kids or has ever had kids knows how HARD it is to get a baby sitter on New Year's Eve. Then, if you find one, you have to pay an arm and a leg because #1 it's NYE and #2 you are out LATE!

So, we skipped all that drama and decided it would be fun to spend it with the kids. We met the Brown's and the Herman's at Caraba's. It was craziness! We had 6 adults, 5 kids and 2 babies. Luckily, Rachel made reservations, because the place was PACKED!

We were all dressed up and enjoyed dinner. I chased Catherine through the restaurant and into the kitchen, so she and I had to go wait in the car for everyone to pay up. (Travis made the FATAL mistake of letting her out of her highchair!)

After dinner, we headed to The Brown's house to watch a football game, chat and let the kids play. Rachel got all the kids matching PJs and they were ADORABLE. So, after pictures in their dresses, they got comfy and watched a movie. Everyone (even the babies!) stayed awake until midnight.

We had a blast ringing in the new year with good friends! Cheers to the wonderful year ahead!
