I had a great New Years Eve in Winston-Salem. Courtney made a delicious dinner and we had hats and noise makers and made a 2010 banner. After dinner we lit sparklers on the deck. We topped it off with ice cream. After the kids went to bed, Courtney and I headed over to Tanglewood to run in the Running of the Lights 5K. The race started at midnight and you ran through all of the Christmas lights and under the fireworks display. I was a bit worried about running in the cold, but Courtney assured me that with the right gear it wouldn't be a problem. So I made sure to have plenty of holiday flair, right down to the "Happy New Rear" hot pants. And you know what? I felt just fine!
