new years eve....

I don't like new years eve.



I never have.....even when I was little.



Mi familia loves to have this big dinner on NYE.



I don't like to go out on NYE.



I am all about traditions....all about doing the same thing on the same day each year.



Boring? Not quite. This year included Rock Band.



For the past five years, I go in my Jammas (Pajamas) to Robert/Isabel/Lexi/Robbie's house. We BBQ. We hang out. And this year, we "Rocked Out" as Robbie and Lexi call it.



Years ago, when we lived far away, we would spend the night there.



Because if you had Ramon Elias as your father, you would have grown up with this fear of drunk drivers. We would have to be home BEFORE 1am because "that's when the drunks are out, leaving the bar".....well that whole story went out the window when Dani was hit by a drunk driver at 10pm (while dani was pulling into her home!) but that's a WHOLE other story.....



But now, I live 2 miles away. So coming home and sleeping in my bed is a good thing........but usually after 2am (which is really dumb because that is the time that the bars close now which means that that is when the drunks are out)



Anyway, I love what I do for NYE.



But I gotta admit, I miss missing out on family things. I don't want to be the one who doesn't know the inside joke or the story that was told.



So I missed out........ :(



But I sure do have a good looking family, don't I?
