First Post of the New Year ~ 2012 ~

All the New Years Eve celebrations are over at our house, just the remnants of our small get together left to clean up! 


I always have mixed feelings surrounding New Years Day.  On one hand it's the beginning of a new year, complete with all the hopes and dreams that a new beginning brings.  On the other hand I feel sad that all the special excitement, family time and fun that is Christmas is now behind us.


We traditionally have a big ham dinner on New Years Day, however, this year, apparently I left my ham shopping a little too late.  I couldn't find a spiral cut ham anywhere, we went to Costco, Sobeys and three Superstores...all sold out :(


So, this year we're going to cozy up at home and maybe play a board game and instead of ham, this year we're having salmon and haddock...I guess that's not too bad a compromise!


Do you have a traditional dinner or activity for New Years Day? 


Tell me all about it, I love hearing how others celebrate special holidays!


Happy New Year and I hope everyone has a wonderful 2012!
