Laudy Daudy We Likes to Party

We closed out 2013 in true style.  Mom let us keep Jonah and Sissy for two days!  Yesterday, we decided to throw a New Years Eve party for our homies.  Sissy sat right down to do some decorating.

I helped too!  Lucky Micah got the sign I made.  I didn't just color, I also glued everything I could find to it.  You're welcome Micah.

We were not happy about the mandatory napping, but most of us went down so we could stay up at night.  I, however, proved yet again that I am the most stubborn monkey around and stayed up to the bitter end.  I say bitter because man... I was!

Then our friends started arriving!  Henry showed Jonah and Coley some party moves on the carpet.

Hank the Tank.

After a forced party break during which the grown ups tried desperately to ram tacos down our throats, we distracted them with refills on their margaritas and made a break for the basement.

More than one person got shot.  That's how we hoodlumz roll. 

Shirts were removed, lampshades (or party hats) were donned and the basement was TRASHED. 

Papa Vandy kept complaining about all the "graffitti."  We just laughed and decided not to tell him the real word for it is "confetti."  We have a certain image to maintain you know.

Some of our gang members are not used to the BANG BANG POP POP sounds we make when we party. 

Some get that crazed look in their eye the moment the first "shot" is fired.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

All of us are true blue buddiez, yo.

Some of us even found the time to bring in a few cute ladies.

Even though we're hard core wild party animals, we still love our Mommiez.

Yes, the future of the New Pal party scene is looking very bright and bubbly (thanks to Welch's Sparkling Grape Juice).

Speaking of the bitter end...  It came much later than it normally does.

The Moms and Dads didn't put us down as planned at 9:30.  Instead, we stayed up well past midnight until we simply could not keep our eyes open.  Where's the sympathy, Ma?  Next year, I think I'll take her up on that nap.

And, just as he did last year, Josiah outlasted everyone and partied until it was simply time to go.  Happy New Year from our gang to yours!
