.Newbie.

 New Years Eve. 

A night always so full of expection was far exceeded this year.  Spending the night snacking inside, sitting by the fire outside, chatting with the game on, watching the fireworks go off all night around town, in and out of sparkly heels, and a sweet baby being passed along friends' arms while fighting sleep (seemingly, she did not want to miss out on the excitement), it was just the kind of way you'd want to bring in the new year. 

P.S. Yes, I am of the sect that believes in Christmas presentation from Thanksgiving through New Years.  Today will be the annual {sad} day of  decor retirement.
