Ringing in the New Year with all of my loved ones

Guest post written by Cynthia Reynolds

It seems like the past couple of years we’ve had a lot of trouble getting the family together for New Year’s. We used to have these big parties when the kids were much younger, but they’ve all been doing their own thing in the recent past. So I planned months ago for us to host a little party at our house and have the kids invite some of their friends. They seemed receptive to it so that’s what we’re doing.

I’ve been planning out every single detail that I can find. While I was online looking up some of that stuff, I ran across the website miracle-ear.com. After I looked through it a little bit I decided to go and get fitted with some hearing aids.

I have found all kinds of neat ideas, including some games for the younger kids to play. It can be tough to keep kids occupied at things like that, but I’m really going to try and make sure that everyone has as good of a time as possible when they come to the party.
