Okay, so I had a pretty spectacular post all written out
and I come back to my laptop to find it all gone,
so this is
New Years Day post
part deux...
Something you'll learn about me...
I'm obsessed with learning new languages
and I actually use them.
Something else to know about me,
I'm obsessed with Spanish and French...
I have no idea why... I just am...
Oh and all things Irish.
Particularly my husband,
just don't tell him that I actually like him.
He might get a big head or something...
Okay enough of this rambling.
Our NYE was low-key
and we did our traditional thing of
ordering pizza, wings, and drinking chocolate milk,
whilst playing board games and charades.
We stopped doing that around 11:35
to get ready for our other traditions
of grape eating, sparkling cider drinking, and watching the ball drop in
Times Square.

| Ladies and gentlemen, grape eating is classy stuff. Mmmhmm, sure is! Making those wishes! |
Today we laid around and watched HGTV all day, along with a little bit of the winter classic GO CAPS! (Phenomenal game btw) And also enjoyed the Ducks beating the tar out of the Seminoles
(Go Gators! Haha)
Day 1 of this experiment and it's already successful. Stay tuned to see what tomorrow holds!
BTW
Tomorrow is National Science Fiction Day

Tomorrow is National Science Fiction Day
That sounds like a perfect way to spend NYE. We stayed in, too. I was perfectly happy staying home.
ReplyDeleteAh, we spent some time watching HGTV yesterday, too :) Glad you had a great New Year's Eve celebration!
ReplyDeleteLove that you are learning new languages. My daughter and I are trying Spanish, we will see how that goes.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I would love to learn another language one day, sadly I have enough trouble with English due to my dyslexia but I won't give up.
ReplyDeleteOur NYE was pretty low key too. We hung around home also :)
ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with all things Irish. It's my heritage. It's my husbands, too, only he doesn't like to admit it. He'll only tell people about his Scottish side.
ReplyDeleteI have always had a hard time learning language, that's cool you pick it up quickly. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you! Our NYE was pretty lowkey and I liked it! Amber N
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of NYE! We always do a low key celebration too.
ReplyDeleteThose sound like some pretty great New Years Eve traditions! Best of luck learning all those new languages! :)
ReplyDeletePerfect NYE! Also, grapes are awesome. How fun. We did quiet in too, my kids of night!
ReplyDeleteOH the Seminoles loss was painful (alumni on board). ;) Happy New Year to you!! I forgot to watch the ball drop!! The kids made it to midnight though. :)
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate when you spend all that time on something and it's gone. That happened to me last month and i wanted to cry.
ReplyDeleteYou had a perfect day! As long as family is involved, you can't go wrong
ReplyDeleteWe stayed in on New years. I told someone at the store that I don't believe in New Year's Eve because I'm a parent. Staying up late isn't going to save me from still having to be up at 5 in the morning with my children.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your family! We had a quiet day for New Years and enjoyed ourselves. Sounds like you all did too!
ReplyDeleteWe did the board game and sparkling cider thing too! Best way to spend NYE in my opinion :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a nice quiet New Years! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteWishing you and your family a Happy New Year! We spent out days in our jammies then went to visit my son's grandmother!
ReplyDeleteOur New Year's Eve was low-key too but that is exactly how I like it. We had some wonderful family time together.
ReplyDeleteI am currently obsessed with learning new languages too. I want to know some German, French and Italian before my trip to Europe next summer.
ReplyDeleteI love grapes as well - yummy! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI would love to learn Spanish and Italian. One day I will take a course for each language and then go to Spain and Italy.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year girl! I would love to learn Spanish again. I learned in in high school, but don't remember that much. Sounds like you have some great goals.
