December 31st: New Years Eve Cape Verde Style =)
Usually we celebrate New Years Rio De Janeiro style, but the kids seem to need an earlier bedtime tonight, so we are counting down to NYE with Cape Verde this year, aka 7pm =) We've made party hats, wishing wands, and we took down our Christmas ornaments to turn our tree into a New Years tree =) On the wishing wands, we each wrote one thing we wanted to do in the next year. Donovan wished for Dinosaurs. He may want a dinosaur birthday party =) Serenity wished for butterflies in the garden. I wished to travel with my family. (This may be cheating, as we have already planned on doing Fantastico and maybe Disney in the fall, but I still wish for it =) Eric wished for more sports. We made one for Maia, and Serenity said she wishes for a happy family, which may be the best wish of all! =)
