Welcome 2013 !!!
Love celebrating New Year's at my mom's! We always plan ahead for a sleep over after the festivities. It's pretty much very traditional: the ladies normally wear red panties to "spice" up the new year ;) We'll bring small carry on luggage to symbolize plenty of traveling, we eat 12 grapes at the strick of midnight- one for each resolution for each month of the new year, than we toast with non-alcoholic wine and give all our loved ones hugs and kisses. The kids love spraying their colorful streamers up in the air, using their noise makers and throwing confetti at the adults. We normally eat posole with all it's fixings, ponche (homemade fruit punch), bunelos, and tamales! Yum! Afterwards, we call it a nigh and wake up watching the Rose Bowl Parade! Love tradition with the fam :)
