NYE 2010

Spent New Years Eve at the farm with mom, gram/pop, Pam, and my girl. Terry came over for a bit, Chris and his crew came over for a bit too. Played a few rounds of Outburst which was fun. Had a few drinks. Watched some of the NYE shows on tv. For the countdown, it was us, mom, and gram - everyone else had left or fell asleep. A fairly uneventful NYE but was good to spend with family. Saturday,  we were serious mattress backs. When we finally woke up, we headed to the farm for New Year's Day dinner. The old folks all had the traditional hog jowl, black eyed peas, and cornbread. They also had a cabbage casserole and broccoli cornbread. Gram fixed us a roast and mashed potatoes. Was very good! Damn good chocolate cake for desert - YUM! AC got a call Saturday morning that her doc scheduled a surgery for Sunday at 7:30am. So, we would have to cut our visit at the farm short and leave Saturday night. We took down all of gram's xmas decorations for her. Went to Amanda's for a Wii party and snick snacks. Went to Wally and got some flowers and put them out at the cemetery. Was first time I'd been there on New Year's Day - broke down, felt good. Pulled up the old flowers and put in the new ones. Hello 2011.
