New Year's Eve Party




We had a blast bringing in the new year as a family. I volunteered to pick up a few extra days  at work this week since Trevor has the week off work. As a result, Trevor told me not to worry about the party, as he would take care of everything. I must admit he did a fabulous job! He did the grocery shopping, made dinner and planned the party events. For dinner, we had a relish tray, nachos, Trevor's homemade chili, brownie bites, and peanut butter cookies. After a delicious dinner, the fun continued with an Angry Birds Star Wars Tournament. A point system was developed:
  • Darth Vader = 15 points
  • Other Guys = 10 points
  • Storm Troopers = 5 points
  • Blocks and Building Materials =  1 point. 
The game automatically ended when all three Darth Vaders had been shot down. The winner of the tournament was Trace Curtis Cook!!!! It is hard to find a game that all kids enjoy and with this game we have finally succeeded.

The evening ended with the viewing of "Star Wars: Episode IV". It was the kids' first time watching this movie and they loved it!!!! Although none of us actually stayed up until midnight, I must admit it was one of the best New Year's Eve parties we have ever hosted!!!
