Day 1 - Suey and Sledding

Happy New Year!! I still can't believe that its 2009....I must be getting older becuase time seems to be getting shorter and shorter. So, I did make it to midnight last night! Tom, Kenna, Kevin and Aunt Sheil all brought the new year in and then went straight to bed. I was hoping since we went to bed late that I'd be able to sleep in....yea right?! Kevin joined us in bed this morning which ment I didn't get to sleep in. Once everyone was up for the morning, I started one of my families favorite recipes, American Chop Suey. I love it, it reminds me of my Grandma becuase she has been making it for as long as I can remember. It total comfort food and its tradition to make it for New Years Day! I also made homemade bread for the meal and I think it was a big hit. After dinner we all went out sledding. We had a blast. I wish we would have gotten more picture of Matthew because he loved it. He would go down the hill by himself on his tummy and as soon as he would stop, he would say, "more, more" and head back up the hill. He has no fear, which is a little scary! Once at home, we went and watched Iron Man, which I have to admit it was pretty good. So, now both boys are sleeping and Tom and I are just hanging out. So, I think today was a great way to start 2009!
