New Year's at the Beach

Me, Tim and the kids headed out for the beach on Dec. 28th. PawPaw and our neighbors Jay and Janene joined us. Also our friends Gary and Melinda came in on Saturday. We had a great time. Football games galore of course. Alot of shopping, eating and just kicking back and having a good time. Ben learned to ride his bicycle without training wheels while we were down there. I'll try to upload some video. We went to the Wharf for New Year's Eve. Ben rode the giant Farris wheel for the first time. He loved it. He was not scared at all. Ben and I also took on a little ice skating. This was a major work out for me. Ben did not support any of his weight. He couldn't keep his feet under him. It was the funniest thing. We managed not to fall. Thank goodness. We headed back to the beach house to watch Auburn. Jay and Janene are fans. Tim and I managed to make to New Year's. It went a little something like this. What time is it? 1202 Happy New Year, I love you and then we rolled over and went to sleep. Boy, that's some celebration. We just hope for less stress the next year. 2007 was full of stressful times. More so than the norm. We came back home on Jan. 2nd. I finally took down all the Christmas decorations and tried to get the house back in some kind of order.
