Lighting is key.

A couple of things.

Cameras that have auto focus, need a certain amount of light to focus properly. Also, if the room is dark, your camera may change your ISO, shutter speed, etc..., to account for the lack of light. When your shutter speed gets longer, any little movement of the camera will be caught. If ISO goes too high, you will have "noise" problems, also making your photos hard to look at.

Not knowing the lighting, or your ability to hold a camera still under "less than proper" lighting, its hard to say exactly what the problem is.

Read your manual. To be at 5 feet from your subject, might be too close to shoot, unless your in "macro" mode. Your camera may not focus at that range.

if your camera is set to auto and the room is dark the camera will slow down the shutter speed down to compensate for the lack of light - use the flash, change the f-stop (open up the lens) or change the osi to a higher setting to 800
this may help
if every thing on the photo is blued it is the camera that is moving before the shutter closes if it is just the people are blued it is a slow shutter speed and the camera is not moving
good lick

Sounds like a classic case of Operator Error - you don't know how to use your camera.

Be honest now. Have you actually READ & STUDIED the Owner's Manual for your camera? Or did you just stick some batteries in, turn it on, and start pressing the shutter button?

I find many people get blurry pictures because they hold the darn camera extended to see the live screen. Putting the eye piece to your face gives you a more secure support. Just one of the many possibilities.

Maybe your hand was shaking when you took the pics or the lighting was too dark so the shutter had to stay open longer making it real hard to hold the camera still.

Too much "holiday spirits?"
OK, kidding aside, was the flash working? If not, the camera selected very slow shutter speed to compensate for low light and with slow shutter speed it's almost impossible to hold the camera steady (people were not moving, the camera was in your hands.)
There could be other reasons, but it's impossible to say without seeing the photos.

Maybe the Grinch came to your house after Santa and swapped the bad camera for the good camera.

P.S. Merry Christmas

You need to get a new Camera, How many pictures are saved on your camera?? If you have too many pictures, it will go blurly and not work anymore. Get a New Digital Camera like Polariad, Nikon, Canyon, Olympic, Fujuim. or any other kind.

you're moving your hand too quick after snapping the shot.
