My parents had invited the family (whoever wanted to come) out to their place for a New Year's Eve party, but then a bunch of the family all got sick just after Christmas... especially mom! She has been sick all week and just wasn't up to having everyone over. She started feeling a bit better yesterday, so we invited them to come over for dinner after church today for a New Year's Eve meal instead of a party.
We pulled out the good china, made a slushy drink and had poppers for each person. The kids were in heaven! We had a roast beef dinner with yorkshire pudding, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, and squash. We had a yummy yule log cake for dessert. It was a nice, relaxing afternoon to just sit and visit. We even got in a game of Blokus! It's been a long time since we've done that!
The kids were in bed by about 8:00 and we weren't too far behind them. Happy New Year to all!
