2006. . .it has started!

Yes, New Years was good for those of you wondering. I went to my friend's parent's house about an hour away to spend New Years there. I got there in time for a great dinner, good eats! Then we went to a party at another house I guess friend's of the family. Wine, brandy alexanders, and awful champagne type stuff from Missouri at 11 for New York's New Years. That was fun had a good time with my friend and her family and meeting some of their friends. I also ate a lot of chocolate, which was good I guess. We then went back to her house and originally were going to have a bonfire but it was cold, and we were really tired (I wasn't) and plus its really dry right now we didn't want to catch the town on fire. Then we sat on the couch and did a little talking nothing too exciting and then my friend opened the bottle of real champagne from France. We drunk that at midnight and let me tell you that was good stuff! Anyway, then we turned on the TV and watched that for a while my friend fell alseep on the couch with the TV on and everyone else went to bed. I was dazed and didn't know where the bedroom was that I was going to sleep in and I didn't want to wake her up. So, I layed down on the wood floor and was going to make the best of it that night. She did wake-up though and was like what are you doing? It worked out, but I didn't sleep that well anyway.

The next morning we went to church. My friend sang a beautiful song that she wrote the lyrics to and the music for that she played on the piano. It was about being captured by God's grace and mercy and good stuff like that. It was really breathtaking to listen to, so good! She really needs to copyright and record it!

After church we went to my friend's grandparents house for a huge New Years dAY party and feast all day. We left about 5 o'clock after we were vegetables. We ate steak soup, asparagus rolls, apple dumplings, eclairs, coffee with Baileys. All the great stuff! But actaully it was kind of boring my friend fell asleep on the couch for hours, I did too and the rest of time we were content just sitting and staring at the TV. We went back and I left, but they wanted me to stay another night. So, yes I like how I started off 2006!
