New Year's Eve and Day

After our family photo session we enjoyed some hanging out. Katie and I took a quick shopping trip and the dad's started to food for our New Year's Eve meal. We ate some yummy food and then watched Duke play some football. We ended it with our traditional watching of the ball drop and a sparkling juice toast. This year all my kids stayed awake until midnight! Everyone had a great time!

Lucy had fun helping the dads with the pigs in a blanket.

Decorating the sugar cookies.

Everybody gets to eat the one they decorate. : )

Toasting to a great 2014!

We all made it to midnight!

All the Kinards made it to midnight except for John!

We spent New Year's day soaking in the last of our time at the lake house. Brad cooked our traditional lunch and we watched the Gamecocks play in a bowl game.
