New Year's Eve

Thought we'd add a little excitement to our New Year's Eve. Getting the right Sterno gel, we were ready to pull out a new "indoor smore maker" I gifted the family this Christmas. Sticks in hand, we all started over the flame. The second picture shows how things quickly turned: Paige holding her ultra-sensitive nose because "it stinks," Meg nervously standing as far from the flame as she could be while still being involved, and Matt becoming the designated one to roast for the girls. (Sarcastically) claiming to know that "it takes the perfect mix of placement and rotation," of course he gets that job!


We let the girls stay up until the worldwide fireworks were highlighted on the 10:00 news. A quick "Happy New Year," an explanation of why those shown live from New York were kissing, and then off to bed. Oblivious young kids + no energy = being completely fine with following Eastern Standard time this year!
