Happy New Year!



We celebrated "Noon Years Eve" with the boys at a jump house nearby. 
 They counted down to noon for all the kids and everyone celebrated. It was cute!

We started a new tradition of taking down everything off tree except for the lights and decorating it New Years Eve morning with balloons and all our party hats and poppers.  The kids thought it was great!
 Since we were all by ourselves for New Years this year I tried to find things to do to keep us busy and having fun.  We made balloons for every hour until midnight and inside each one was an activity on a piece of paper that we could do as a family.  The boys loved popping them and seeing what was inside!

6- Balloon volleyball
7- Video 2011 interviews (We started it this year where we video the kids one on one talking about the year and answering questions. It will be fun to look back on in the future if we can keep it up!)
8- Call grandparents and wish them Happy New Year!
9- Play a family game- We played Disney Headbandz that we got for Christmas. Pretty fun!
10- Eat a special snack and watch a movie
11- Turn on the music and dance!
12- Tell your favorite memory from 2011
Little cutie pie :)
 New Years Eve in Florida is seriously like the 4th of July. Everyone sets off fireworks all night long and people in our neighborhood were setting off huge ones. It was so fun to go out and watch! BB was so brave and did some fireworks by himself.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Brayden was so excited he got to stay up for midnight!
 We made sure the little sleepers got to celebrate a bit too!
Elfie and Randall headed back to the North Pole after our New Years party and left the boys a little note with their blocks :)
