Our New Years was a ton of fun but relatively quiet. After so much chaos with moving and Christmas and travelling, we decided we were worn out and ready for a quieter evening. We decided to stay in town and at the last minute, made plans to hang out with some friends. We picked up a pizza, let our kids play and relaxed. We appropriately watched “New Year’s Eve” and found it to be wonderfully funny. We hadn't planned on actually staying until midnight but the kids were playing so well that soon it was 11:30, Lovely fell asleep on my shoulder and we decided we might as well let the kids play longer. So just before midnight, we searched YouTube for the ball drop and got to watch that. It was the girls’ first New Year’s but they loved doing “cheers” with our individual serving size bottles of Martinelli’s and especially loved the fireworks that suddenly exploded from the neighbor’s house. We had a perfect view from the balcony and the girls stared in awe, danced happily and squealed like crazy.
New Year’s Day was a lot of fun as well. Daddy and Grandpa took the big girls skiing while Grandma, Auntie Lu and I took the baby shopping with us. We had a fun day and spent that evening with more friends.
Since then, we've returned to work, preschool, the gym, had a busy Saturday of moving Husband's kid sister and attending church at our new ward. It's been a good, but very busy first week here. I'm hoping life can now quiet down a little and become more predictable. We shall see.
