Rockin' in the New Year

So, when you throw together a last-minute New Year's Eve bash with Jeffrey and Karen, you really just don't know what you're in for. Our night included (but was not limited to) the following:

• Jeffrey's amazing and delicious homemade pizza

• Board games (Karen and I won, and then lost)

• 20 pounds of Christmas candy (hey, it's totally justified when it's on sale after Christmas)

• A few neighborhood fireworks

• Jeffrey's midnight run around the block in the nude (oh wait, he opted to keep his clothes on after he felt how chilly it was out there)

• "Eye of the Tiger" (Karen and Jeffrey, then Ellis and Jami)

• "Material Girl" (Ellis and Jeffrey . . .see video below)

• "Tricky" by Run DMC (no one)

• Numberous 80s medleys (all of us)
  

There's a surprisingly long intro to "Eye of the Tiger" when you're playing SingStar 80s. Luckily for all of us, Jeffrey and Karen were prepared with theme-appropriate choreography.





I tried to get Ellis to do some Rocky moves with me during our "Eye of the Tiger" intro. He wasn't nearly as inspired as I was.


And for the grand finale . . . All I can say is, move over, Madonna.
