Okay, as you might have guessed, one of my New Year's Resolutions was to update our blog more frequently. So grab a LARGE cup of coffee (maybe 2 or 3) because I've updated all the way back to October! You can follow this page all the way down or follow the "archived blogs" link on the right.
We had a great New Year's Eve at home this year. We had planned on going to something with Kevin's friends, and had an invitation from Natalie's friends as well--but I suppose we're getting old because we just wanted to stay at home. :) We invited Kinsley and Nick and their two sons over and had a great multi-course dinner provided by Pop (aka Kevin's dad). (Side note: Pop had previously agreed to drive over and babysit while we partied...but graciously agreed to change roles from babysitter to chef when we changed our plans). We had bruschetta, crab-stuffed shrimp, and kabobs...delicious!! While Pop cooked, we visited, played Wii and passed around baby Andrew--the newest addition to the Eubanks family. The boys even stayed up until 11pm!
On New Years Day, we went over to Oma and Grandpa's house (aka Natalie's parents) for a bring-in-the-new-year dinner with collards, black-eyed peas, corn bread, potatoes au gratin, cole slaw....and more. It was so tasty and guaranteed to bring us wealth, luck and longevity for 2008...thanks Mom!
2007 was a great year for our family, and we hope it was for yours as well. I've gotten teary-eyed more than once thinking about how fast Alex is growing up already--but it's been so much fun and we look forward to the new adventures that 2008 will bring.
Best wishes to you and yours in the coming year!

What a great New Year's Holiday it was with you all. Lots of good food at Neil and Linda's, fun with Nick and Kinsley, Ryan and Andrew, college football, beer, snacks, and most of all good times with Kevin, Natalie and Alex. Most relaxing three days I've spent in a long time. Alex is a terrific little boy and every minute with him is special for me. I'm so impressed with what good parents you are and so thankful for each of you. Had a great time, happy new year!!!!
Love,
Pop
Kind of had a freak out moment at this comment: "We invited Kinsley and Nick and their two sons over" two kids...whew!! :)
Dinner was GREAT best meal we have had in a long time!! We too had a nice time and enjoyed the evening.
My how big Alex has gotten, I see him often but I guess pictures really show how big he truly has grown!!
Here's to a wonderful 2008!
Glad to see that Alex got a Gigi tent!!!
