If you haven't noticed, by the time we got to New Year's Eve, we were about all partied out! But we managed to put together one last smorgasbord of fatty (and in this case deep-fried) food, get the kids together, and make some memories. :)
Of course, Grandma helped the kids make their New Year's Eve crowns. I do believe it will have to be a tradition now, as Claire reminded Grandma about 67 1/2 times to go to the school and get the special paper. That girl has a mind and memory like a steel trap! Everyone ate too much food, and then visited while the kids played. At 7:00 pm, we decided to stage the big countdown for the kids...and some of the adults. ;) Like I said, we were just about partied out. At least I was! Every year at the Call New Year's Eve party, at the countdown, there are poppers and noisemakers passed around for the big moment. This year was no different. The kids, old and young, had a blast!
After this, we put our kiddos to bed. The plan at that point was to stay up and play games as adults. I lasted until 9:00, when I fell asleep on Danny's shoulder as he played "Starcraft". We were down in bed by 10:00. Yup, we're that lame. :)
