New Year's Eve

December 31, 2011 the last day before a New Year of 2012 begins, ended a with great night. Zach and I had a couple of options of what we were going to do, but normally we like to stay mellow on New Year's Eve. Of course we planned on just staying home and just to make our homemade dinner, but after waking up from a great nap, our plans changed. In the end we decided to go to a restaurant that David & Ruth, our friends, introduced us to called the BBQ & Grill Woodranch Restaurant @ Irvine Spectrum. It's been by far our favorite restaurant now a days. Zach of course didn't really want to go because of the 30 to 45 minutes wait to be seated, especially on New Year's Eve. Well when we arrived, there was no wait and they were able to be seat us right away. From the "no wait" to start the great night it just got better. Basically, our last meal of the year was AMAZING! 
Our Delicious Meal: Beef Ribs, Half Chicken, BBQ Pulled Pork, Tri-Tip Steak with a side of Mac n' Cheese

Even our roomie, Jansen (my little sister) & Jevan (the boyfriend) joined us for dinner, but what's better is thanks to these two, dinner was on them. :D
 After dinner, we had to run to the store to complete a family tradition. On New Year's Eve we prepare a collection of 13 different kinds of round fruits into a bowl or basket, because my family has always believed that it will bring a fruitful new year. I always believe in continuing a family tradition! Every year after I gather the fruits into a bowl it always reminds me of: the many blessings that Zach and I have received, the love I receive everyday from my wonderful Husband, family & friends and a new year resolution to accomplish to start a fruitful year.
In the end, with sparkling apple and grape cider for a toast to the countdown to the New Year and Zach and I ended it with sweet kisses in our home. HHHAAPPPYYY NNNEEWWW YYEAARSS !!!
