As much as I hate to see Christmas go (a trait that must be genetic considering Arden is still demanding holiday music daily), I’m always ready for a fresh start in the new year. I’m planning to share my “word of the year” later this week, but it didn’t seem right to move on without documenting our last day in 2015.
We started off at the Kansas City Moms Blog “Noon Years Eve” event at Pinstripes. Bowling, bocce, face painting, pizza, live music…and a milk & cookies toast + balloon drop at noon. What more could you ask for? Basically, my kids (3 & 1) have already been to a cooler NYE party than I had in 30 years. I’ve got the pictures to prove it…
That evening we joined some friends for one final shindig of the year. The kids wore their PJs and stayed up until after 10:00 (wowza!)…then things got a little silly when the adults were given access to a selfie stick (thanks Sarah!!!) Don’t believe me? Just check out this gem of a video that surfaced the next day. Gosh, I love these people!!!
I hope you all had a wonderful New Years Eve…and felt better than I did on New Years Day!!! #thankschampagne :/
XO,
Vanessa

So much fun!! I can't even imagine the trouble I would get into with a selfie stick!!
Jessica Kessler says
Looks like so much fun. You had way more fun than I did. I was in bed by 10:15. I was so exhausted from moving and a rough night the night before with Emmy. No staying up for me. 🙂
