I've always partied on New Years Eve. When I was younger, I would even invite my friends over to my parents house to play games, do puzzles, watch movies, eat good food, etc... while waiting for the stoke of Midnight. And then, once the clock stuck twelve, we would run out onto the front porch with our whistles, horns, pots and pans, or whatever else we could find, and make as much noise as we could. Shouting Happy New Year to anyone who could hear us!
Well, times have changed, just a bit. Ruby obviously retired way before midnight, but Bree and Elle now think it's way fun, that they actually get to stay up so super late! And they are old enough, that they pretty much make it to midnight now.
We try to make it fun for the girls. We got out our shuffle board game, and some other games, and had some quality time with our little family.
And we ate as much junk food as humanly possible for one night!
And when the ball dropped in Times Square in New York, we watched it on TV and then even had some poppers on hand to celebrate the occasion! And then, it was off to bed :) ha..ha..

I can barely make it to midnight anymore! It is always fun to ring in the new year with the people you love most. :)
