In all of my years I have never really enjoyed big New Year’s Eve celebrations. It always seemed like a lot of hooplah or an excuse for people to drink and eat way too much. I am a hang at home, play games with the family, eat fondue kind of girl. That is how we have celebrated with our kids and have loved it. However, this past year, as our kids are getting a bit older they really wanted to stay up and have fun with friends and ‘ring in the new year’ with sparkling cider, noise makers and fireworks. I did happen to still sneak in fondue but never quite made it to games. I do have to say that it was one of my absolute favorite New Year’s Eve celebrations. I loved, I mean LOVED hanging out with my dear hubby, my two precious children, my parents, sister and 3 of my kids friends. It was magical and a very special way to ring in 2014. So thankful for these moments, they remind me of what is important in life.
This eve of 2014 truly was a great time! The fondue was a hit, the night was festive and the company was fabulous! This is a great memory for me too. Thank you for all the fun Russell’s. I have to say, the blind makeover gave me a HUGE belly busting laugh!! Silly girls, and silly howling boys!
