Happy New Year! (The year I broke the bells)

I celebrated EST new year (8pm my time), and I rang my special bells so hard the string broke! Well, okay, it was really old. I celbrated with Abigail (Shawen was at a no alcohol party and Jr. was at work). We watched fireworks together (finally! They've been trying since the 4th of July). Abigail was amazed.  She got a little nervous with a big one, but when she saw me smiling, she smiled back and enjoyed them.
