New Years Eve 2012

Another New Years Eve in Pasadena is here. We have a new spot on the parade route (closer to our house than usual but not what we wanted) and it has turned out well. Dinner consisted of Becca's Chili (and not my leek soup which was awful and dumped down the drain). The hot chocolate bar didn't get made until 9:00PM and now everyone is in bed but me, I am waiting until midnight to put out the chairs. Becca is getting up for the 6:00AM shift-this to ensure everyone gets their seats for the parade! PS as I was chatting with our Rose Parade neighbor tonight and we discovered that she knows the Skinner family and her daughter goes to school with REM and MJM.
