Welcome back everyone to the Show Stopper Saturday #21! Thank you for joining us!
Hope you got to ring in the New Year with a lot of fun… whether you went to bed early or stayed up til the sun came up!
Justin and I celebrated with our little Easton, and our niece & nephew– ALL NIGHT LONG! We did a new craft every hour. One of the fun crafts they really enjoyed was DIY Painted Mugs. You can tell how they were so intrigued with their own designs– total focus! {See Twitter Picture}
What did you do to celebrate the New Year?
It’s time to party and show off your fabulous projects, crafts, recipes, tips, stories…etc! Remember this is a party… we’d love for you to hang around and visit all the creativity every one has brought.

Lisa, it was pretty rough the next day…considering it was a school night. That morning taking the boys to school, I could tell all the other moms had a hard time getting back in the routine. But, so happy to get my boys out of their cozies and off to school!
Hope you have a great rest of your Sunday …. with what’s left of it! xo

Gloria says
Anne, I felt so bad because, at around 1 AM we realized that me and Justin forgot to do our New Year’s kiss! We were so involved with the kids’ fireworks and (glow in the dark) silly string fight out in the snow that we totally forgot! Sounds like you two had had fun night, though! (Please tell me you did a NY’s kiss!)
Hugs!
Anne ~ Uni Homemaker says
We did have our New Years kiss! I maybe the forgetful one but Chris always remembered for the both of us. 🙂 Sounds like you guys were having great time! 🙂 Have a fantastic week Gloria!

Andi @ The Weary Chef says
I can’t believe you stayed up all night with little ones! I didn’t even stay up until midnight, and I’m an adult 😉 We went to bed by 10 and got up early to go to Disneyland the next morning!
I’m loving all the goodies I see here. That enchilada soup looks amazing, and all the features are gorgeous too. I’m headed to bed, but I’ll be back to mingle in the morning for sure!

Gloria says
Andi, I am such a morning person. So, staying up all night with the kiddos AND doing crafts totally wore me out! I used to set the clocks ahead on NYE when they were all little… but now, they are too smart!
That sounds like so much fun …going to Disneyland! I *attempted* to take the boys about 11 years ago… and they wanted to go to New Port beach instead! So, that’s where we went and hung out for the rest of the trip. No ocean out here, so it was all fine with me. We do have a themed park really close. I think that’s why the boys weren’t into Disneyland. I’m sure your boys LOVE it!
Have a great week, my friend!
