new year's eve with the hardcastles

how did we spend our new year's eve?

we saw the best movie of 2010: True Grit (technically we saw it thursday night, but it was so good it needed to be mentioned & documented on the blog)

 gordon went snowboarding. and took his new video camera with him.  it's the fancy kind that films in hd and can mount on his snowboarding helmet, or crusier, or...pretty much anything.  i'm pretty excited to see the short "movie" he's creating.  my husband the film maker.  that has a nice ring to it.

 i made bruschetta for a new year's eve party we attended.  it was delicious.

we spent the evening at a little gathering my mom had for new year's.  it was nice to be with family.

our course a toast was made when the clock struck midnight to ring in the new year.

abbi was all tuckered out towards the end of 2010...we stayed up way past her bed time.

 but when 2011 began you can bet she (and briggs) were wide awake and begging for treats from grandma.
 

we had a fabulous 2010 and are excited for the new adventures 2011 will bring.  happy new year!
