Higgins New Years Bash

Wednesday morning I was woken up by Britlyn telling me that Daddy wanted to show something to me on the computer....it all started with Britlyn waking up listening to her radio talking about the "beach ball drop" in Panama City. She tells Chris all about it and together they decide it is a good idea....Chris shows me the website with puppy dog eyes and asks if we can head to the beach. Then the fun starts!
We get to Panama City Beach and the girl immediatly beg to eat at Pineapple Willy's(their fav hot spot). They buy t-shirts with their Christmas money and we eat. Then we head to the hotel to take naps so we can stay out late. After naps we head to Pier Park to enjoy the fun. They have a band playing, bounce houses, face painting, balloon artists, and free kids meals at Margaritaville. They have a lite up beach ball hoisted in the air by a crane. We missed to "drop" which thoroughly upset the girls plus Chris. Kylea said that her burger at Margaritaville was the best ever and the mashed potatoes were good too but mine were better :) It was getting really cold out so we decided to head to Target to buy goodies to finish the New Years celebration at the hotel. Jadeyn was the only one who didn't take a nap that day so she feel asleep in the car. We finished watching the New Years Bash on TV and watched the ball drop. Kylea was very disappointed that they only showed the ball for 3 seconds twice. And then refused to go to bed. Britlyn claimed she wasn't tired so we stayed up until midnight.
Today we went to the beach and built plenty of sandcastles and walked around. It was very chilly, but that did not stop Brit and Kylea from putting their feet in the water.
I hope that I am able to rest and get the house back into order before school starts. This has been a busy but fun Christmas Break.
By the way...Chris did not have to drug me up or bring me back kicking and screaming. I was to sick to throw a fit. He is still upset that he had to drive the whole way home.
