New Years Eve Campout

Mike and I have never been big New Year's Eve party-types. Even before we had kids, it just never has meant that much to us. But even more now that we have kids, we would rather just be in. I always figure it's the safest place for them and I don't want them anywhere on the roads after dark with all of the drunk drivers out there. When we talk about what to do for New Years, going out really even doesn't come up. This year we stayed with the tent thing and after the pirate play tent went back down and dinner was over, we let Caleb set up his camping tent that Santa brought him and are having a little camp-out in the family room. Of course we are also passing the time by playing some board games and watching some movies. Caleb is super stoked that I told him he could "for reals" sleep in his tent all night if he wants to and he has nominated Dad to sleep in his tent with him in the summer when we take it camping. I'm glad he likes it.
