Happy NOON Year!

Being that our kids go to bed between 7-8pm, staying up until midnight on New Year's Eve is still a few years away.  BUT we've adapted a tradition of celebrating "Happy Noon Year" at noon with the kids.

We count down to 12:00 noon, go outside with blowers and sparklers, toast sparkling cider and celebrate in the backyard.  It's a quick, fun celebration for the kids and Mike and I enjoy their anticipation.

Last year we commemorated the event with a family picture that is the cover of our Project 365 Picture-a-Day digital album for 2011. Let's see if I can remember to do that tomorrow!

What a great idea about Noon Year!
We let our kids stay up for New Year, but they usually end up crashing on the couch at 10pm!!
