Ok, so this is a little late but I am trying to resume blogging more often for the sake of memory preservation. This is a memory definitely worth preserving!
We had our first annual "Noon" Years Eve Party! It was a Pancake Pajama Party! It was awesome!

Ok, so here's the thing...I love New Years. In the past I have had some pretty fun nights ringing in the new year. Since I've been married the celebrations have been less than awesome. Not that being with my hubby isn't awesome but honestly he is usually asleep long before the clock strikes 12. So, for the sake of kids that need to be in bed and a husband that just can't stay up that late we decided to move the countdown up a bit!
The guest list consisted of all of our kids best friends and their families plus my best friends and their families as well. We had around 30 people there. It was a little crazy but luckily crazy is what we are made of around here!

Upon arrival the kids constructed their own party hats. I don't think one kid still had it on when we counted down but they had fun making them. We had kids playing outside, some playing just dance on the wii, and most of the kids were just running around like mad! Seriously it was awesome!
We were supposed to count down to noon but once people had eaten there were lots that were ready to escape the craziness around 11:30...so we moved the countdown up (something that you can't really do when you are counting down to the ACTUAL new year). Next year I will plan on starting @ 10:30 instead of 10 for sure. The countdown was complete with confetti balloons and noise makers (you know because kids can't possibly make noise without official makers of noise).
Yes, it was CRAZY but it was CRAZY FUN!!!! It'll be a tradition for sure!

Looks like SO MUCH FUN! And such a great tradition to start!
Hi Sally,
We wanted to let you know about our new site: www.MommyGiggles.com.
Mommy Giggles is a site where moms submit funny pictures to share with other moms to get a giggle out of. They can either be pictures of their kids or of other hilarious “mommy moments”
We are contacting you to see if you have a funny picture that we could post – we would of course give you the credit, and also post your blog (if you want). There is also a $25 Amazon Gift card drawing to everyone who submits a photo each month.
We also would appreciate if you could spread the word about our site to other moms too!
We hope you will get a “giggle” out of our site.
Warmest Regards,
Heather Matthews & Heidi Werry
