New Years Eve

It's New Years Eve!!  We are going to celebrate at home in style!  I have a bunch of games planned, and Jonathan's brother and sister in law are coming over to celebrate with us.  Of course all this means last minute trips to the store.


And party hats and noise makers!


I forgot to mention that Leiden's first Betta, Safari, died a couple days ago.  They buried him in the front flower bed, and Leiden made his little headstone today.



I got the things we needed for several minute to win it games.  The girls were pretty funny trying to get ping pong balls out of the tissue boxes tied around their waists! 


Also noteworthy was the somewhat traditional cookie game.  Get the cookie in your mouth from your forehead without using your hands! 


Crumbs everywhere!


It seemed that for much of the time, we adults were more into the games than the kids.  We played a straw game where you have to get as many marshmallows to a second plate using only the straw and your mouth. 


I took Jordan on with this game.  Sadly, I lost! 


We let the girls stay up until Midnight, when we rang in the new year.
Happy New Years!!  My 2017 be a year of love and happiness!
