ChipandJoanna Gainescelebrated New Year’s Eve with many of their loved ones!
To ring in 2020, the couple enjoyed what seemed to be an adults-only evening at a restaurant beside 14 of their closest friends.
The large group was captured in a photo on Joanna’s Instagram Stories sitting around a large and festively decorated table with candles and floral centerpieces. The room also featured a massive flower painting on the wall and a gorgeous chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
Later in the night, Joanna, 41, and Chip, 45, whose five kids did not appear in any of the photos from the festivities, played a card game, enjoyed a delicious chocolate dessert, and even posed for a silly photo together, wearing their glittery Happy New Year glasses, mini hats and noisemakers.

Surprisingly enough, there was no sign of the pair’s five children — daughtersEmmie Kay, 9, andElla Rose, 12, and sonsDuke, 10,Drake, 14, andCrew, 16 months — whom they’ve been spending lots of time with over the holidays.
Early last month, theFixer Upperstars and their broodpicked out a massive evergreento bring home for the holidays.
Joanna shared on Instagram that her husband had chosen a tree so large that it required assistance from some heavy-duty equipment to get it on top of their car to take home.
“Chip picked this 12ft beauty that required a little help from ol’ John Deere … ” Joanna wrote alongside a video of Chip and a few other men working together atThe Robinson Family Farmin Temple, Texas to get the tree secured atop their vehicle with the tractor.

“I guess I can do withouta dining table for amonth,” Joanna joked in her text on the photo, adding an emoji of a monkey covering its eyes. The tree needed to be secured to the wall in three places to stay upright inthe family’s farmhouse.
The Gaines’ lives won’t stay quiet for long, however.
Earlier this month, the couple also shared that they’ll beopening a hotel in the Texas townin 2021.
