Happy New Year!!!





Happy New Year, it's 2007!!! My family had an awesome New Years. We started the night with a fun game of Clue. After Clue dad turned on the TV only to find out that the Bears vs. Packers game was on. Finally we got out of the house, we caught a cab and headed downtown. I finally gave in to wearing a silly hat, our whole family had them. Sarah and I also got some confetti to throw at midnight. We found a spot where we had plenty of elbow room and were still pretty close to where the fireworks would be. When it was 11:59 we started the count-down, except in Spanish! At 12:00 we all shouted "Feliz Año Nuevo!" And people sprayed champagne and Sarah and I tossed up our confetti. Then we watched some spectacular fireworks! They were really good!!! At the end of the show the tower, where the fireworks were being blown off from, looked like a volcano erupting with a shower of lights. It was amazing! We walked home with many others and slowly one by one people started drifting their own ways til we were the last ones going in our direction.
