Happy New Year 2015!!!

We celebrated New Year's Eve in Mountain Home last night and it was so much fun. Each year I try to make New Year's Eve fun for our kids since they can't physically stay up past 9 pm. We party hard until 9 pm and then they pass out in their beds. 
This year we had a glow-in-the-dark party. 
The kids kind of loved it! 
We had an insane amount of glow sticks but it was so worth it. 
We had a pizza party to start the night. 
Well a glow stick pizza party.
The kids flipped over the pizza. They loved it. 

Then every hour we did a different activity. 
The first thing we did was glow-in-the-dark balloons. These were so much fun. 
In between each activity we would do lots of glow-in-the-dark dance parties. 
We did glow stick hopscotch too. 
Our next activity was glow stick prisms. These were super cool. 
We had fun taking them apart too. They were like spider legs and the kids loved that. 
Tucker was a big fan of the glowsticks too. 

Aunt Laura helped keep the dance party going all night long. 
Then we did glow stick ring toss. 
And our final activity were these awesome glow stick glasses. I seriously loved the kids wearing these. I cracked up every time I saw one of the kids wearing a pair of these awesome glasses. 
Chris was obviously thrilled to be wearing them in this picture. 
Then we rang in the new year by Watching "King Julien's"  New Year's party. We also had some confetti poppers and blowers. 
Happy New Year!

Oh and Tucker slept through all the loud popping and horns. Little guy was exhausted from partying so hard. 
Then we popped open the sparkling cider. I don't know how my kids can drink so much of this stuff. The carbonation kills my throat and these kids just chug it down. 

Love this man of mine!
We had such a fun little party with the family. We have been extremely blessed over the last year and I feel so grateful. I'm hoping we are just as blessed this year. 
Happy New Year!
