Happy New Year!

To start off 2006, we celebrated on New Year's Eve with the other two couples from our small group. In the top picture are (from left): Mary, Steve, Jenelle, Janet, and Jamie. I'm in the bottom picture, and I happen to be wearing a new shirt. This is a shirt that I got in exchange for one of the shirts in the now famous BenCam poll. :)

We had a great time! Jenelle made chicken something-or-other that had fresh mozzarella and prosciutto on it. Mary brought a salad, and Janet brought appetizers and champagne. Though there were quite a few memorable moments, and here's a few:
1) We tried to play a game of Outburst. I'd like to think that we were pretty good at it, but the fact that the game was many years old made it tougher than it should have been.
2) We had chocolate lava cake for desert. Very yummy.
3) We had three kinds of noisemakers, leis, and three different kinds of party hats. :)

Finally, I'd like to send greetings to two people who celebrated birthdays on Friday the 6th:

Happy Birthday, Pam!
Happy Birthday, Aunt Nancy!
