Happy New Year!!!

We celebrated our New Year's Eve at the country club where Mike works. We had a fabulous dinner, and watched everyone shag to a night of beach music by Second Nature. For those who don't know what shagging is, in South Carolina it's not what Austin Powers does but just happens to be the state dance. Mike and I tried to take lessons before our wedding, but my athletic husband found out that he was dance class challenged. I picked up on it pretty easily from all of my years of dance class, but it becomes harder when you try to come together with your partner. We hope to give lessons a second chance when we are not stressed out from trying to plan a wedding. We just know that 2008 is going to be our year since Mike swears that his lucky number is 8!! We have so much to be grateful for, and so much to look forward to!! Happy New Year to our families and all of our friends!!


We stopped for a pic as we entered the party.

Here we are in the last few minutes of the countdown to 2008.
I love the hat and the noisemaker. It's a good look for him:)
Make a joyful noise!!
The 1,000 balloon drop at midnight.
Balloons, balloons everywhere!! You should see grown adults trying to step on as many balloons as they can to pop them. Too funny!!
