New Year's Day!

Happy New Year! 

2016 has officially started and we have the celebrating to prove it!

Observe...

This was our last selfie of 2015. 

We took it on our couch because we came home early from my parents' big New Year's Eve party. 

Because we have babies.

Who have bedtimes. 

And that RUINS OUR FUN

(not really but we were a little bummed about going home early)

Since this guy is such a big kid, we let him stay up as late as he wanted and he made it allll the way to midnight!

We watched TV and talked about how magical New Year's Eve is because you get to watch the whole world start a brand new year.

And then we counted down to midnight and broke open the sparkling cider! 

It was the best time.

....until the next morning when we ALL regretted it. 

Did you know New Years Day is also National Hangover Day?

Gee. I wonder why...

We had an excruciatingly grumpy morning. 

Everybody fought. 

Everybody except the baby, I guess. He was fine.

The rest of us though?

Blergh. It was rough.

My parents host a big New Year's Day party (as well as a New Year's Eve party.)

They are party animals.

And what we eat at New Year is the single most delicious sandwich you will ever have in your life ever. 

And ever

Amen.

Panes con Pavo is a traditional Salvadorean meal.

Join us next year and you can try one!

On a scale of one to 10 of deliciousness, they are a 20 million.

New Year's Day is also the only day when I am willing to play board games.

AND THEN I LOSE WHICH MAKES ME NEVER WANT TO PLAY AGAIN!

Cam won at Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries. 

You'll have to ask him if having to sleep on the couch was worth the win.

Just kidding.

but not really.

What's next on our celebration calendar?

Get ready!!

2016 is just barely getting started!
