Happy New Year! 2008

Due to all of the snow we spent a quiet evening at home for the most part on New Year's Eve... we did decide to take the girls to the movies - our first Family Movie night - to see Alvin and the Chipmunks... about 3/4 of the way through, the fire alarms went off, someone burnt the popcorn and we had to evacuate the building. When we told Alexis we were going to take her to see Alvin and the Chipmunks (one of her favorite Christmas CD's), she asked if we were going to take a walk with them after the movie! I was so delighted that she remembered about Rudolph and our walk with Santa, Mrs. Claus and the reindeer earlier in December! She was kind of disappointed that we wouldn't be taking a walk with them after the movie though.

The girls enjoying some veggies before our New Year's Countdown...
You can see in Kayla's eyes here that she is really not feeling well... she started running over a 100 fever that night... but she has been a great trooper. They were all set to bang pots and pans (the annual Kolich tradition) when we did our countdown.
The girls had an apple juice toast at the end of our countdown (8:00pm before their bedtime).
Getting ready for Grandma and Grandpa's annual prime rib dinner on New Years Day... Alexis was ready to go...
Kayla gave me a little battle getting ready, she really wasn't feeling well at all. She is still running a fever and hopefully she will kick this cold within the next day or two.

Of course Aunt Theresa had a HUGE bag of Cheetos for Alexis and Kayla - in their nice cream colored dresses none the less!
