NaNa and PaPa invited the boys over to their house for a little New Year's Eve celebration! And, being that this was the first New Year's party the boys have ever attended, they were pretty darn excited about it!
I'm not sure if they were more excited about the snacks and sparkling grape juice they were going to munch on all evening. Or, if it was the fact they could "stay up until tomorrow!!!" :) Either way, they were excited little boys! They spent the eating NaNa and PaPa out of house and home, all the while playing rousing board games! (Who knew Tiddly Winks was so fun?!?)
The weather had taken a turn for the worse as we dropped them off for the party, pretty much cancelling any chance Mommy and Daddy had to actually go out! We made it a couple of miles up the road before the snow and ice forced us to turn around and head back to town.
But, we still managed to make it out to our little local Mexican restaurant and have dinner and margaritas. (Well...at least Mommy had margaritas!) The rest of the night was a quiet one at our house. We were in bed fast asleep by midnight.
And, the boys? Well, their plan to "stay up until tomorrow" didn't quite happen. Cole crashed long before the ball dropped. NaNa woke him, walked the sleeping boy out the living room to see the countdown, and then he went straight back to bed. (He doesn't even remember it happening!)
Chase, the little party animal, did stay up to see the ball drop! (Oh...did I mention that they actually watched it in the Eastern time zone??? Yeah...good thing he wasn't paying attention to the actual time on the clock. Ha!!!)
All in all, the boys had a great time! Can we come back next year, NaNa and PaPa?!?!?
