Happy New Year’s 2013!

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce you to my New Year’s kiss, Shrek. If you tapped on the glass and puckered your lips, he swam over to you and made kissy faces. We’re going to try for a long-distance romance, I think.

Ashley‘s trying to make moves on my man.

The whole group!

We went to a waterfront restaurant called The Galleon for dinner.

OMG, vegetables. I haven’t had many of them this week…

I had salmon over lentils and Brussels for my entree.

And plenty of champagne, of course!

And hats and noisemakers.

It was actually a fairly low-key New Year’s. We stayed at the restaurant until after midnight and then came back to the house to hang out until the wee hours of the morning chatting and drinking more champagne by the pool.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! What’d you do for NYE? Are you team NYE or team get-me-the-hell-away? I’m not usually super-crazy about NYE amateur hour, so I have loved this idea of being away for NYE and doing something low-key.

Also…2013? When did that happen? Will my flying car be waiting for me at JFK tomorrow?

  • You look so gorgeous and tan! Love that dress!

    Deep dish pizza, ice cream, Archer, and my man. Old person NYE heaven!

  • You look so pretty, relaxed and glowing! I like doing nothing for NYE. But going on vacation sounds good too!

  • Sounds like a fantastic NYE - we took the low key route as well and it was wonderful. Here's to a fantastic 2013!!

  • Happy New Year! I did the Emerald Nuts Midnight Run in Central Park for the third year in a row. I don't know if you've done it before, but I think you would really enjoy it (I HIGHLY recommend it if you're in the country next year).

  • You look very relaxed! I wish I could be somewhere hot instead of Colorado right now. Brrrrr.

    Happy New Year!

  • It always is nice to have a tan in the middle of January!
    The salmon looks delish.
    Happy New Year.

  • Oh so jealous if that tan! Had an awesome NYE at our place with friends that got a lil rowdy, which was super fun! I am pretty sure your car will not only have the ability to fly but should be able to fold up into a suitcase, which should come in handy for a city dweller like yourself!
