Bringing in the new year with Sara this year was so much fun! It started out with meeting her mom and her mom's friends at Granite City, which was okay.
Then Sara and I went to see the Christmas lights that my family goes to see every year, but I just felt like dad never gave us a chance to see alot of the display, so Sara said we should go, so we did. It was AWESOME! a lot less crowded on New Years Eve. They even used one of the songs from a lights show at Disney, which my dad would've loved!!! clearwaterlights.org.
we proceeded to head to Sara's house, since I am house hunting, so we switched it up this year, and then the announcer voice, which is super creepy and more halloweeney than Christmas said "Stay tuned for a photo op", so of course, we turned around and went back. The people around us probably thought we were crazy!! haha!
after that we drove around some more, since there are a lot of pretty lights in Sara's neighborhood, then we went back to Sara's, and her brother just moved out so she redid his old room and now has the SARA CAVE, which is super cool!! its our fun little hang out, and she got it done just in time for New Years.
After that Sara's mom and her friends stopped by because we had told them about an old game called Dream Phone, any girl who grew up in the 90's will now about this awesome game. "your right I really like you!" haha! so fun, so we played that.
Then it was time to ring in 2013, so we did, of course with apple juice and fake wine aka grape juice, and then after watching the ball drop and sadly no Dick Clark (he died in 2012) we watched a movie called New Years Eve, which was suprisingly really good.
Then it was BED TIME!!!! it was like 3 am by the time we went to bed! after being woken up early by Sara and her mom, which was great since Sara made waffles, we proceeded to be lazy all day and watch old shows like Saved by the Bell and Boy Meets World, while Sara organized her DVD library, I am not kidding, we counted her main DVD's and she has well over 200!!!! CRAZINESS, but really fun!
I then came home to do laundry and continue being lazy, but on 1-12-13, man I gotta get used to writing 2013, I am joining weight watchers. I hate giving up control, but I know I need to do this! so I could use some prayers and well wishes on this new adventure.
Let's make 2013 FABULOUS!! PS I cannot believe it will be 10 years since I graduated from high school this summer!! CRAZY!!!

Granite City was more than okay, it was very yummy!!
But if I remember right you are the one that said that we should go to see the lights because you didn't get to stay very long to see them, so I said ok. & yeah you can't miss out on a great photo op!! ;-)
It was a LOT of work in just 3 days, but yes we did get the Sara Cave done & just in time for New Year's (which was my goal time to get it done by.) & I am LOVING it, it is so nice & cozy & just awesome!!!
Dream phone is such a fun game to play, even though it is so old & kind of dorky, but it is still fun (even though the cutest guy of the game, Steve, is never the guy that is the dream guy that says "you're right I really like you!") & I love that Betty won & her reaction when she won (cause she had had no clue on how to really actually play it & she still won!!)
It was very sad to not have Dick be part of New Year's this year & not having him doing the count down, it was just very sad & very weird, he will be FOREVER missed!! & the movie New Year's Eve was actually really good & had us guess a lot until the end & threw some surprises in there that we didn't see coming.
I love all those old shows that they used to have on, all the ones I used to watch growing up, I wish that they would bring all those shows back again (& not just as old reruns), that was some good TV!!
I am very proud of you for taking such a big & healthy step in your life & for joining Weight Watchers. You will be glad you did in the long run & we will be here to help you on your journey & you will do GREAT!!!!
I feel old when I say (or hear) that this summer will be our 10 year high school reunion, that makes us OLD!!!! But all in all it was a fun night & has been a good beginning of 2013!!
