Happy New Year's!

THIS was our New Year's Eve dinner spread this year!

(please note that our window is OPEN...I had to close the other one because of the candles, but yes, it was 70 degrees today!)

After much deliberation, we decided that the most fun meal to have would be

HOMEMADE PIZZA'S!

So, we made our pizza's, and then ate them by candlelight!

We also had deviled eggs, dried fruit from Grandma and Grandpa, and a cranberry seltzer spritzer...a meal fit for Kings indeed!

...and Queens!!!

CHEERS!

And CHEERS to YOU, from US!

This year, we are also starting a new tradition of decorating a 'time capsule' on New Year's Eve, and putting in a few pictures from the night, a short questionnaire, and maybe a few other things.


Grace got creative with the lid...

...while Alex helped with the main part.

We went with the Pringles can. Our thinking was that the can has gone this long without changing, surely it will be the same eighteen years from now, right??

So one day, when our kids are grown, they will have a storage container filled with one of these for each year! I think it sounds like fun. Now, all we have to do is NOT LOSE THEM!!!

We then enjoyed a nice round of Candyland and then some special New Year's cupcakes before bed! Both kids fell fast asleep without a peep!

Happy New Year's to YOU!!!
