New Year 2022

Asher and Leif are often just as excited for New Year's Eve as Christmas. For the past few years they have been allowed to stay up until midnight and they love the games and treats before everyone else goes to sleep too. This year we got a new game called Dutch Blitz for Christmas and played many rounds of it over Christmas break and especially on New Year's Eve. We also had a pandoro- a "gold bread" cake from Italy (they are much easier to find in Canada than in the US). Here is Asher putting the powdered sugar on it. 

Since Trevor can't have the cake due to allergies, he had graham crackers instead and spread maple butter on them.

 


The kids also enjoyed poprocks as part of their treat- just a silly thing to make the night more memorable :)

Austin made dutch babies (German pancakes) for the kids for New Year's morning breakfast, like he has for the last several years.

All the kids love this breakfast, but I never make it, so they have to wait for Near Year's day or some other special occasion for Austin to make it for them.



Unfortunately, Trevor can't have this breakfast because it has butter in it, so he begged me to make him crepes. Once I made some for him, all the other kids wanted them too, so they ended up with a double delicious breakfast.
