This year we hosted the Cornishes at our house, since it was far too cold (and has been since November) to go outside and shoot fireworks.
Grace was extra excited to paint some banners, and use some of the leftover confetti from our Christmas crackers to accentuate it!
The food on offer was pretty standard, but we did break out the punch bowl for some lime sherbert and sprite punch!
The kids entertained themselves, while the adults played some Texas Hold'em. We changed over to Mario party, but Grace and Emily wanted in, and as I was not enjoying it much, I let them take over my control.
We celebrated the new year really early, maybe 9:30 with the Super Monster's Countdown on Netflix.

It was nice to get together and play a few short, simple games with them, as our games are typically far longer, and much more complex.
Here's to a happy, healthy, and fun new year!
later days
