Happy New Year!!!

We had a really nice New Year's Eve. Jenn made a terrific dinner. We had steaks, loaded baked potatoes and grilled asparegus. Mmmm! She also sauteed some mushrooms for my steak (she doesn't do mushrooms). She also bought me some Newcastle Brown Ale, which tasted wonderful with my dinner!

We ate and watched the Pokes beat the crap-o-la outta the Hoosiers at the Insight Bowl! I was so happy!

We ended up going out to Alibis around 11pm. It was sort of depressing. There were only a handful of people there and they were playing some really sad, depressing "don't leave me, I love you" songs on the juke box. *rolleyes*

After midnight, I put a $5 in the box and played a bunch of upbeat, fun songs. Some more people started showing up and it actually got pretty fun. We tried some new drinks - a liquid marajuana (sort of melon-ish) and some shot that had blueberry vodka in it that (despite my dislike of vodka) was pretty smooth and nice.

We ended the year on a great note and started the new one wonderfully! Welcome 2008!

New Year's Eve

Well, since we didn't have sitters for the boys, despite having been invited to one helluva party, we decided to stay the night downtown with them at The Renaissance Hotel. We went down to Bricktown and ate at Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill and then brought the boys back and let them swim for a few hours. It was great. They had the pool to themselves, so they could be as rowdy and obnoxious as they wanted to be!

We let them have a late night snack and watch ANT BULLY on their portable dvd player. We would go to the balcony or window every once in awhile when a band would march by or something interesting was going on. E fell asleep about 10 pm, but K was determined to stay up to midnight, so he could see the fireworks. He fell asleep (no kidding) about 10 til midnight! I didn't want to wake him, because he was out and snoring.

We couldn't really see the fireworks from our room anyway, because we were faced away from them. We saw their reflection on the Sheraton next door (glass windows). But it was a really fun evening and the best thing is that the boys had fun and we had fun spending time with them. I wish I would have thought about it a little, and I would have gotten them party hats, leis and some of that sparkling grape juice.
