New Year's Eve is always fun at my house. Or at least I try to make it fun. Natalie and Nichole bailed on us and went to their friends house to spend the night (which I was happy about. I like them to make memories of their own with their friends as well as with their family). And Nate had to work until 11. So the fun didn't really start until he got home. Well, Tyler, Ella, and I did spend about 2 hours before he got home playing card games.
Nate's family tradition was having seafood on New Years Eve so we thought that it would be fun to do it this year. I bought crab and shrimp enough for the 6 of us. Since there was only 4 we only cooked the crab. It ended up better that way. By the time we got through the crab we were all stuffed.
At 12 we had sparkling cider and milano cookies to celebrate with. I bought a whole bunch of the confetti guns to bang in the new years with and the kids banged pots and pans.
The best part for me was getting to kiss my honey at midnight. What a great way to start the new year.
Earlier in the day I had the kids write done some of their goals for 2013. I will post on here when I get them all scanned. I wonder how much will be followed through with.
