New Years Eve

We decided to go with a family party this year since Mimi and Pop were in town and it was their last night with us.

I went with the count down bags and had an activity for every hour.

5:00pm
Review the past year via the blog.
Using all the blog posts from the past year made a great count down to 2014. We needed to review the year in order to accomplish another activity later on.

6:00pm
Eat
We love party food in our house!

7:00pm
Memories of 2013 and Predictions for 2014
We had the kids "fill out" the sheets. Lily did a great job. Max enjoyed writing on his too. The adults even filled them out.

8:00pm
Game Time
We pulled out my Clue Master Detective game from my childhood and enjoyed the game. It lasted a lot longer than expected, but still fun none-the-less.

9:00pm
Happy New Year!!
At least to the youngest member of the late night party goers.

10:00pm
Share time
The adults then shared what we had written on our questionnaires and enjoyed getting to know each other better and what happened during the year in our separate locations. I really enjoyed just talking with Mimi and Pop (and JD too). We then toasted to the new year and hit the bed. Mimi and Pop needed their sleep as they headed home on the 1st.
