New Year's Day is one of my favorite days of the year.
I can't tell you how much I enjoy having my house full of people. It really brings me so much joy. And even though I am totally exhausted from all the prep and entertaining.....I am sad it's over.
Here are a few highlights....

my kids got a hold of my camera and had some fun...
Lot's of food...
the turkeys after being carved....yum!
How many crock pots can you fit on a counter?
I count 4...with two BIG pots of black eyed peas!
People started coming around 1 and the last left around 5:30
We had the PS2 set up in our room for the little guys.
The older kids were in the basement with the Wii
after a while all the teenagers ended up in our dining room
playing some game
It was a really great day.
I love opening my home to friends and am so thankful I am able to do it.
The perfect start to 2010!
