New Year

This past weekend was fun filled and crazy.
Between New Year festivities and my cousins wedding I stayed pretty busy!
For New Years I went out to eat with a few friends then headed back to my brothers house for some games and entertainment.  We played a new game called "Qwelf", ever hear of it?  Me niether.  It turned out to be some crazy filled fun.  You see as the game progresses new rules are added and/or changed which makes it an entirely different game every time you play, but then that's the fun of it. =)  WE were so enthralled in this amazing game that we nearly missed midnight.  Someone noticed in time to scramble and pop the champaign, phew!
I left my dear brothers house by about 3am-ish, plenty of time to get home, pack for my cousins wedding and get roughly 3 hrs of sleep, hooray! Fortunately I wasn't going to be doing any driving on our 6 hr trek to iowa so I was able to get plenty of sleep in the car... well as much sleep as you can get crammed in the back seat with your little sister and her boyfriend. ;)  
The wedding was fun, cold but fun.  The bride was beautiful, the ring bearer and flower girl were adorable, my cousin, the groom, was so crazy in love you just couldn't help but smile.  And there was a square dance.  Now I have to be honest, I was rather skeptical at first.  But then my cousin needed a dance partner so I filled in and what do you know, it was kinda fun. 
After the reception ended we all headed back to the hotel to keep the party going just a little longer.  It was fun, makes me sad that my whole family doesn't all live around here.  I also realized there are only three grandkids left on to get married, one of them being me.   wow!
