It was a smaller but energetic crowd at the community center. The dance floor was really hopping! My dad's band, Hardly Workin' has been around now for about 23 years and I have so many fond memories of listening to him play as a child. It was great to listen to some of the old tunes again! These guys still have that same spunk and charisma!
Adelle literally danced the whole entire night. There were only a few moments when she rested to get a drink or a little snack. We all had fun dancing, even Wes and I.
We counted down to midnight with the mayor and then headed outside to see the fireworks. Adelle kept saying how wonderful and beautiful the fireworks were.
Channel 5 news was even on hand earlier in the evening talking to the Mayor while my dad and his band were performing. Maybe you saw them.
We left about 12:30 AM to head home. Adelle managed to stay awake the whole evening, even in the car. It's good she had a long nap earlier in the day. We ended up going to bed around 1:30 AM. That is so super late for us.
It was honestly the most memorable New Year's Eve I've ever had. It was such a blast. If my dad's band performs again next New Year's Eve we will have to come and bring Lydia this time. I am excited to see what this new year will bring. Here is hoping that prosperity and good fortune comes your way this year! Happy New Years!!!

Another picture of the band.
Adelle was really getting tired here (even though she wouldn't admit it) so daddy picked her up to dance.
Love the glasses!
Getting ready for the big moment.
Our first moment and picture of the new year (well after I received my New Year's Kiss from Wes).
