I'm a little late on posting this, but we had a nice, quiet New Years Eve and Day. We put Natalie to bed at her normal 8:00, but we let the other kids stay up until about 9:30 watching some shows. We got Trevor and Heidi to bed about that time, but let Asher and Leif stay up until midnight. Once we had all of the little ones out of the way, we got out some games and played Rat-a-Tat-Cat and Bananagrams with lots of snacks. The older boys loved this special time with Mom and Dad and it was fun to play games together without having to stop to take care of someone every few minutes ;)
No one in our family is used to staying up so late (especially Mom!), so by about 11:30 we were all getting tired and we let the boys play Minecraft while I read and Austin did something on his phone. We made it up to midnight, then all crashed.
The next morning, Austin continued what is starting to become a tradition of him making Dutch Babies (German pancakes in his Dutch oven) for breakfast and we had a quiet day around the house cleaning up, planning for the new year, and playing games. The only picture I got was of breakfast:
