This year we hosted New Year’s Eve and had friends over. The kids ate a bunch of sugar and then ran around the house screaming for 4+ hours. Everyone made it to midnight before crashing, actually that’s not true. Dave fell asleep at 11:30 pm in his chair, but woke briefly to see the ball drop. Husker had no idea what was going on.
New Year’s day was quiet. I had a headache most of the day which left me bumming on the couch. Dave and the kids did a little blacksmithing and made a small 4 inch knife. They all had a great time.
The rest of our week was pretty quiet. Noomi had a friend over. We went on lots of walks with the dog and enjoyed some crazy warm weather for January (low 50s, no snow).
