We celebrated New Year's at my mom's house. We go there every year and eat the traditional seafood buffet including oysters, octupus ( And yes we all like it. It's pretty good.) shrimp and clam chowder.
The kids had fun blowing these for days. My mom also sent us home with TONS of confetti. Which we did outside but I'm still vaccuming it to this day.
We also played games. My family doesn't usually stay up until midnight though because my mom always works early the next day. This is not usually my favorite holiday and the Vasquez family didn't have their usual party so we went home and went to bed early. Maybe we are getting old or maybe it's just that I'm very pregnant but it was sure nice to go to bed early.
We have a tradition that Santa's tricky elf Jack Frost comes. He fills stockings with newspaper and other things trying to trick you. At the bottom is a treat or a small toy.
