The country where 85% of the land is covered in ice! Where almost the entire population (except for the foreign geologists) works within 10 miles of the coast! And more importantly, the capital is 4 hours ahead of us.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, our New Year&#8217;s Eve will be at 8 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>The party starts at 5 p.m. Chili in three types will be served: red, white, and green, all ready by 6:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Kids are more than welcome. We&#8217;re not hiring babysitters this year, so it&#8217;ll be a free for all.<\/p>\n<p>IF YOU WANT TO COME: great! bring whatever!<br \/>\nIF YOU DON&#8217;T WANT TO COME: great! don&#8217;t bring whatever!<\/p>\n<p>The traditional singing of bad songs will commence at 8:01 p.m. The traditional popper battle will commence some time after that.<\/p>\n<p>And we can guarantee that anyone who shows up will get to hold Jacob or play with him.<\/p>\n<p>Please note: all are welcome to stay as long as they want, even to midnight, but there&#8217;s no guarantee the hosts will be awake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many of you know, tomorrow is the 31st of December.
