Bob and Carol, Kristy and Steve are all here visiting and it's going well so far. They're staying at the Red Lion motel by the airport. They flew in yesterday, and Carter and I picked up Kristy and Steve at the motel so we could pick up their rental car in Vancouver. Then we went to lunch at Burgerville.
Later in the evening they came over and we went to Gustav's restaurant, a German place. The food was pretty good and there was a fun accordion player strolling around, playing songs. He played a few fun songs for the kids, "Beer Barrel Polka" for Carol, and "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof. I sang along and he said, "How do you know all the words?" I told him I was in the play once, and he said, "Were you Tevye?" Ha
Carol, Kristy and Steve took Bob back to the motel, then went to the store. We took Brennan and Girlfriend to her sister's house to spend the rest of the evening, then came home. I fell asleep and Dad woke me up at 11:55 to count down to 2010. I served the sparkling cider I bought earlier (I also bought noisemakers and horns). Carter was the only kid awake - Bella came out at 12:45 and was bugged that we didn't wake her up.
I went to bed at the same time Bella woke up. Eventually Dad went to pick up Brennan. Carol, Kristy and Steve went back to the motel.
