New Year's Eve Party

 We were excited to host a New Year's Eve party

with the Derrick extended family this year.

~ 21 kids and 11 adults makes for a fun night ~

 We had a "Let It Glow" theme.  We had black lights, disco balls,

and glow in the dark hair, nails, etc.  The girls were so excited
to help make all of the plans.

 We made our version of Cafe Rio Salads, snow cones,

cotton candy, and lots of treats.

James was the man keeping all of the kids happy.

 We had a drawing and Matt was the winner.

We gave him a disco ball to remember our fun night.

 Cute Cousins.

 The kids have been working for a few days on a production

of "Frozen."  It was awesome!  It was fun to see

them dancing, singing, and acting skills.   

 The kids watched Smurfs 2

and we played Telestrations over and over.
It is our new favorite game.

Thanks Brian and Amanda for the great present.

I love this picture that Kathyrn drew of her parents. :-)

 We rang in the new year, loud and strong at 12:00 am.

 Matt, Allie, Ethan, Jack, Adelyn, Emme, Chloe & Hadley
slept over night....

which made New Year's Day fun too.

 Thanks everyone for coming!

Happy 2014!
