To those young, carefree and more importantly, child free couples out there… listen carefully…. enjoy these days. I say this from experience. Not that I don’t love my kids. I LOVE my kids. I ADORE my kids. My kids are the world to me… you get the picture. But as the wife and I walked down to Carytown on New Year’s eve with the kids in tow, we were silently envious of all the couples all dressed up heading to the parties around town.

It ended up being a nice night. A pretty sweet night actually. After hanging out in Carytown for awhile, we walked back home to make sure we didn’t get rained on. We toasted the New Year’s with the boys around ten with some sparkling juice. We got the kids off to bed, popped a bottle of wine, and watched the stragglers head down to Carytown to watch the ball rise. (Which, by the way, was a smashing success)

After watching the ball drop on tv, we tuned the gamecube on and proceeded to beat the crap out of each other while playing Fight Night Round Two. We were up till who knows playing on the gamecube, slighly buzzed from the wine, having a great time. So even though we weren’t kid-free this New Year’s, I have to say it was one of the sweetest and fun one I’ve had in a long time. I had a great time this New Year’s eve… how about you guys?
