New Year's Eve

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!

 After a few hours, they left to go home and we had a lazy rest of the afternoon.  We played on the PS4, watched a movie and took a bunch of selfies.  (We're such party animals!)

The kids were in bed by about 8:00 and we weren't too far behind them.  Happy New Year to all!
