I always look forward to New Year’s after the hecticness of the holidays – it’s like my final and best Christmas present. We don’t have any traditions for NYE, only to spend it having a great time with our closest friends. Last year it was at our place, but I just wasn’t up for it this year with all our holiday spendings, however, we were lucky enough to be invited to a friend’s parent’s big blowout party at their gorgeous home in Cocoplum.
I had a great time with the most special people in our lives right now. I felt very lucky to be able to ring in the year with them all. Plus, the spread was amazing! Such a beautiful home complete with a mini champagne-filled fountain, delicious food, open bar and painter illustrating the entire landscape. See? Amazing.
Unfortunately, I wish I would have taken it easy with the shots – I’m not used to drinking hard liquor anymore since I have been in a pretty committed relationship with beer for the past couple of years. But, it could have been a whole lot worse. My only main gripe was that it put me out of commission all of New Years Day. Boo!
Now that all this partying is over and done with, I’m going back on a strict-ish diet (c’mon, this girl loves food too much) and hitting the gym to take up spinning. This extra holiday poundage is not cool.
How was your NYE?

Glad you had a blast, even if the shots got you. 😉
My New Year’s was mellow with my parents and brother since we were stranded in New England, but it worked out to be a great time regardless!
& I am definitely with you on needing to get rid of some extra holiday poundage. Particularly since I need to be extra hot for Jamaica in March!
