New Year's Eve 2011

We celebrated the New Year with a camp out in the living room.

Smores by the fire
Katie wouldn't take her eyes off of Ben's Smore!

Very serious work, making Smores.


We followed our yummy treat with a game everyone could enjoy.
Drew, in happy anticipation of being asked to make lots and lots of noise at "midnight"

counting down for the ball to drop

Happy New Year!

New Year's hugs

stories by the campfire

winding down in the tent

...and sacked out!

HAPPY 2012!

That looks like a GREAT way to ring in the New Year!

I was thinking that I would like to find a way to celebrate the New Year with the girls, 'cause it always seems so anti-climatic after the holidays. This gives me inspiration for next year :). Happy New Year to all of you -- may it be full of many blessings and joy!!

Thanks! I was worried it would feel like a let-down of a New Year's Eve, but I am so happy it didn't! This was the first New Year's Eve since 1993 we haven't spent with friends. Our travel schedule this year made it make more sense to celebrate in Knoxville.
Happy New Year to you too!
