best

now,
i've had some pretty sucky new year's eves.
for example,

last year
i had the flu.

two years ago
we paused our boardgame and said happy new year.

three years ago we watched tv.

five years ago we co-threw a party
and it BOMBED.
i mean, embarrassing. bomb. of a party.
luckily, my party throwing skills have improved.

so this year, at the last minute
we decided to throw a party together.
we're a good team.

pictured below: two crazy hosts


we moved furniture,
we strung lights,
we hung a disco ball,
we cranked music,
we threw confetti,
we burned stuff at midnight,
and had the BEST new year's eve.
of all time.

pictured below: aftermath of partying


next year's will be even better.
expect an invitation.

I'm glad that yours rocked. I'm very interested in the burning stuff at midnight part.

We suck at throwing parties and have vowed to never throw one again.

It sounds like you guys had a blast. Now I wish that we had gone. But we had a great time at our own little party. I hope to get an invite next year. We will be there!

BURNING STUFF: everyone wrote down something they wanted to GET rid of in 2010. something from 2009 that was bad..a bad habit, a bad memory, etc. and then they burned it. it was a very solemn ritual..and a great way to start a new year.
