So this is the new year...

Wow. Another year flew by. But theres no other way to ring in the new year than to light somethin' on fire and blow some stuff up - All in between meals, of course. (We ARE in southern Louisiana) The festivities this year kicked off with some of Papa Moose's pork ribs - that we quickly devoured.



After some Wii Golf, it was time to light something on fire. What better than the freshly discarded Christmas tree? Well, what started as, "Dude let's see how fast this thing will catch on fire" ended with a one-tree, 2 minute BONFIRE.



We then proceeded to finish out 2007 by blowing up stuff in the water, on the ground, in the air and shooting rockets at each other. You know - typical guy stuff.

But the festivities only continued on January 1, 2008 with one bowl-game after another, at the Fontenot's. At one point, I hear a cry of help from Katie - only to find this predicament...



She had the GREAT idea to play Monopoly, but just needed a little help getting the game down from the shelf. Now, I love a good, rousing game of Monopoly. But what can begin as a nice, friendly game...



Can quickly become something so much more.



Katie won. She's veddy, veddy sneaky. So, Happy New Years - it's gonna be a great one.
