~New Years Eve Party~

lights//Christmas cards//scrumptious appetizers//family and friends//pancakes with meat//trying new things (Dutch Blitz anyone?!)//smiles//ringing the bell at midnight//playing "Auld Lang Syne" on the piano.

 New Year's Eve seems so long ago now, but I remember it as a joyous evening of good talk, laughter, embarrassing moments (for me anyway), tasty food (monster cookie dough dip anyone?), and reflections. 

As C.S. Lewis once said, "Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes, but when you look back everything is different...." Growing up does that too you sometimes. ;) 

Anyway (word of advice) try not to drink huge amounts of coffee unless you're planning on pulling an all-nighter with someone. A lesson learned no doubt! :D

Haha, take care everyone and thank-you for your comments on my last post. 
I really appreciate it! :)

Those mice and cheese are adorable!

Oh I just love Dutch Blitz!!! I am the "Queen of Blitz" among my friends and family. :) I love that game!!

Coffee has never affected me that way. I can drink several cups and still have no trouble going to sleep. But I have been drinking coffee at night for years now.

Ahh. Dutch Blitz. Truly a game that brings out the err.. competitive side in me. Looks like such a fun night! :)

Petie said...

Ahhh, so ya'll played Dutch Blitz!! It's my favorite card game, and uh, not trying to brag or anything, but I'm quite infamous for my Blitz skills. :P My friends and I can get pretty wild when we play. There is plenty of yelling, screaming, hand-slapping, bent cards, and diving across tables. (no joke. that has happened.) But it's seriously the most fun ever. Looks like ya'll had a fabulous New Years' Eve party! :D
