New Years Eve 2012 we went up to my parents house to play with cousins and hang out. We had a candlelight dinner, played games, lit off fireworks and just hung out. 

Keaton and his Cousin Patrick Playing. Patrick got a kick out of pulling keaton around in this wagon. They are only 5 ish months apart.

    To celebrate "midnight" aka 8:00 with the kids we turned out the lights and put on a strobe light while the kids danced around and blew their noise makers. I bought a giant balloon drop and confetti but we never got around to blowing up the 100 balloons so Ill save it for a rainy day.

          We left my parents house a little early and headed to Grandpa and Grandma walkers to celebrate. We watched pitch perfect made our new year wishes and toasted the new year. 
    I have a new years tradition of writing down our wishes for the new year on balloons and releasing them out into the world. Kalebs "wish" for 2013 is Ninja Turtles...... He's 4 what do we expect!? 
Mike and I's Wishes for 2013 Included Health and Safety of our 2 sweet boys, being surrounded by good friends and family (Love) and More money in the bank! You can always strive for more savings! Can never be too prepared!

I bought rock candy for the kids to make their sparkling cider toast a little more fun! I forgot how yummy these were! And it was fun to dunk the in the drink and watch the drink fizz.
