Happy New Year! We donned our festive glittered crowns to ring in 2014. Eliza Kate sported her finest of party duds. Kids change the whole New Years scene and make it much more low key event. We hosted long time friends of our family over for a casual dinner.
Yes, our Christmas decor was slow to come down this year--don't judge:)
And, ya'll know we didn't even plan to stay up until midnight. I'm much too smart to know what payback is like the next day with exhausted kiddos. The kids played on every floor with their new Christmas gifts, enjoyed legos, the wii and indoor jumping. The adults cozied up to conversation without the kids. There's really nothing better than adult conversation in the stay at home mom's life, especially after the long, lazy days of Christmas vacation.
We had a good new years blow horn blast before the evening was over. The honking of silvery horns signals another year gone by. A rich, blessed year of transitions for our family. We're so thankful for new and old friends. And, if you ask Eliza Kate--she's over the top thankful for an excuse to dress up and wear her glittery Happy New Years crown.
The adults did squeeze in a Happy New Year selfie. We coaxed the guys into sporting man bands for the occasion.
The littles awoke much too early anticipating breakfast, so we took our show on the road to Waffle House. Miller loves family outings like these--we all do. A second cup of coffee perked me up to enjoy New Years Day. Eliza Kate matched several of the waitresses in her bejeweled crown. I did convince her to hang her party dress up for the day.
Wishing your family a wonderful start to the new year!
