Greater love hath no woman than to lay down her New Year's Eve celebrations for her sisters.

I bet they run you ragged!

Aren't you lovely! That's such a sweet thing to do! So often the little ones are left out. Now get them to watch Princess Diaries 2 and then you can all start mattress surfing down the stairs! :wah:

Surprisingly enough, I was going to get that taken care of but decided to wait til after the party rather then risk the girls messing it up...

Man, you are a saint and one of a kind. What a sweet and unselfish thing to do. I hope you have as much fun as the kids do. Happy New Year, hope you have a good one and well deserved.

I used to do that when mine was little. It was always a hoot and the kids usually woke me up on the couch for New Year. Yep - they always wore me out.

they are still awake....3 am and i can hear them trying to help each other stay awake...

cracks me up!!:wah:

I let them all call their folks screaming happy new years at midnight... gotta love cell phones...

Floppy, as a single mom I have to say what a selfless and kind thing you are doing. It makes my heart glad

That was great, I love doing stuff like that with kids....we always ring in the new year with all of our kids...well my 3 boys and my brothers' 3 stepdaughters and they have a 2 year old son....we played "guestures" right up until midnight last night after we played "singing bee".....was a lot of fun...

They've decided that I'm the best one at guestures....(like sharades) and I told them its only because I'm animated....:wah:
