an impromptu new years eve party

it pretty much happened like this...bobby loves new years..we never really get to do anything because of the kids..so he suggested we have a party..movie night upstairs for the kiddos..game night for the adults downstairs.  it took a little convincing considering we just got done with christmas..but i'm easily talked into a party. haha. we had a great turn out and had so much fun ringing in the new year with friends!  we literally planned this days before, so not a whole lot of thought was put into it..haha..but here's what i came up with. ;)

this was bobby's hat  ;)

 we picked up two bundt cakes from nothing bundt cakes (red velvet and white chocolate raspberry)

 threw up some cheesy decorations..it's new years, you're allowed to...right? ;)

 we had no shortage of drinks..they consumed 3 counters haha

 i made some treats :)

 ella insisted we get necklaces

 i picked up so many of these cone hats..i loved them! ;)

 ella's tiara

 so many people brought food...we were eating all night!

 we ordered lots of pizza and breadsticks

 we had 2 salads, meatballs, pulled pork, rolls, bean dip, chips, hot wings and treats among many other things

 yummy desserts

 averie helped keep the kids entertained.  she did a great job..the kids love her!  the kids were also served individual popcorn bags, m&ms, licorice and juice boxes..and whatever else they wanted ;)

 the guys played ping pong and poker

 the girls minus carlie who showed up a little later ;)

 the kids finally settled down after playing and watched a movie.  they all came in their pjs and brought pillows and blankets.  a lot of them fell asleep.

 countin down!

 champagne for all! :)

and we finally played (kinda) a late game of win, lose or draw..with about 5 delirious players. hahaha!

happy new year!!!
