Ringing in 2014


L led a toast to the new year last night after she and her friends ate some homemade pizza. They toasted with sparkling grape juice. L decided she wanted to have a New Year's Eve party and invited some girls from school and her neighborhood friends, E, her sister B and their cousin S.


L did all the decorating and preparation for the party herself. I was pretty impressed when I walked downstairs and saw how she had the room set up with snacks, pop and decorations.


Here the girls are playing a musical chairs-type game. If the music stops and you're still dancing, you're out. L was playing DJ for that game and being the judge. E, B and S had to leave at about 8 p.m. so L and her friend, J, and her new friend, E, walked them home. They were blowing noisemakers the entire way there and back. Then the girls rented "Despicable Me 2" and watched it downstairs.


E could only stay till 10 p.m. because her family was having a party so the girls decided to ring in the new year a bit early. They even put a new year's hat on August, though I don't think he liked it much. J stayed to sleep over.
