Happy New Year 2014

YAY!  So excited to ring in 2014.  Before that though a few pics as Daniel turned 10 months on the 10th of December....




Our annual tradition is to celebrate New Years with our friends  Tom and Fawnia.  It started many years ago (before kids).  Fawnia and Tom had some guests living with them and the guests' daughter was having a b-day party, so we invited them for New Years.  Two days later they we were still hanging out after and lots of food, games and fun; so we made it a tradition.  They don't stay the night anymore (or for several days), but each year we do something a little different.  One year we even ventured out to Portland, but found ourselves the first customers of Voodoo Donuts (no line) at midnight.  This year, we actually had a very calm new year.  Normally my parents watch the boys, but because they were needed to babysit in Idaho we had them... So it was low-key, but also nice.  We played games, ate fondue and enjoyed the company.  I created little bags of goodies for Andrew to open at 6:00, 7:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, and 11:45.  Filled with different little trinkets, hats, puzzles, candy and poppers! He loved it.  I was amazed but both boys stayed awake until midnight!  Daniel was ready for bed a little after, but Andrew was still ready to party.  We did get him settled down, but I had to take a few pics.  

Happy New Year!
