We had our annual New Year's Eve party at Grandma's, where we eat yummy sandwiches and salads, cheeseball and Grandma's famous punch (cherry koolaid, orange juice, and sprite) play games and decorate the tree (again) :-)
This is been a tradition in our family ever since my mother was little. How it came about was one New Year's Eve night my grandparents went out on a date and left the kids with a babysitter, but they felt bad for leaving the kids on a holiday so they got them balloons and confettii to play with, it being New Years and all. And well this is what they came home to, the kids had put the balloons and confetti all over the Christmas Tree. My grandparents thought that was a pretty cool idea and so now every year since we decorate the tree again on New Year's Eve with confetti and balloons! I remember how fun this was to do with my cousins growing up and well even now as an adults we all still enjoy it very much!
