Happy 2013 everyone! This is another photo overload post! Two weeks before New Year's Eve, I suggested to have a camping themed celebration to make it more fun for the kids since we owned 2 kiddie tents. We didn't have much preparation. I changed the list of food we were supposed to prepare for New Year's Eve. The easiest camping food to prepare I had in mind were S'mores, hotdogs and grilled corn. I made the food tags 2 days before the celebration. We ditched using sparklers this year. All we used were colorful flashing sticks, lightsaber toys and party trumpets. We stayed up till past 1 AM!

watched fireworks
We had a simple New Year's day celebration. The kids had a blast with the parlour games!
The kids had to blow the flour in order to find the hidden coins. Whoever gets the 3 coins first using her mouth wins the game.
We ended our New Year celebration with an icing fight! Ykaie was crying because she thought it was poop! lol!
I turned this table into a kiddie tent to accommodate the kids...
and the kid at heart!
marshmallows
I used melted chocolate to stick the teddy grahams to the marshmallows.
