How do two couples with young kiddos celebrate New Year's?!
First, one couple sends the toddlers to Grandma's.
Then, while the one-year-old naps, one of the mommas throws together some appetizers.
You get together at 5.30 because 7 PM is probably your one-year-old's limit.
But, he is intrigued by the two-month-old, not to mention the different house to explore.
And so you sit around munching & chatting and chatting & munching until 10 PM, covering such topics as self-feeding, potty training, farm expenses, depreciation, New Year's resolutions, God's goodness & help, and the wonder that a year ago neither couple knew they would have a newborn in 2014!
Based on the fact that there wasn't much food left, you might be interested in these recipes. Or maybe the depletion of food was merely a sign of being tired and enjoying eating junk food. :)
Spinach Dip (with carrots & crackers)
Taffy Dip (with apple slices)
Bacon-wrapped Chicken Bites
