New Years Celebration Plans

As we did last year, I am going to get 7 paper bags and draw clock faces on the front for each hour from 5 o'clock until 11 o'clock. These bags hold festive fun; noisemakers and hats, silly string (messy but fun!), water guns, bubbles, playdoh, etc. The Midnight bag is a giant trash bag full of balloons (hidden of course to maximize excitement =) to be "dropped" at midnight. These bags will be opened at the top of each hour.
In between bags, each hour will have its own game; Twister, Charades, Pictionary, Headbands, UNO, Operation, and connect Four. This year we are going to put together a family time capsule to be opened next year. we also will take some time to come up with "family goals" for the new year. Lastly, we will play Family Photo Trivia. We will take different pictures of things we did this past year and see if the kids can guess where we were. Hopefully, this will lead to many laughs and discussions of the fun of this past year!
For food we will stick with our standard;pizza! Plus an ice cream sundae station and we will make the confetti cake found here...http://familyfun.go.com/recipes/confetti-cake-686197/
We also will be using our new karaoke machine and wii games throughout the night. A faux toast at midnight and we are ready to welcome the new year!
