THE LAST DAY OF THE YEAR

Church and then Food and fun!

Mikila and Jared and Amber and the boys came over. Mom, Michael, Ryan, Jana, Josh, Tracie, Brady and Sean! We played lots of games and ate lots of snacks and stayed up for the midnight countdown – – HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We woke up and packed up! And CLEANED the house real nice. Some people headed home and a bunch of us headed to moms and John and Tracie’s! Less than an hour away… The house really was just perfect. The kitchen was so big. The two dining areas. Lots of big open spaces. No regular house clutter and stuff to contend with. It was a magical post christmas week.

Everyone was hungry when we rolle din to town, Some of us had talked about going to Mongolian for lunch,.. then others started talking about Sushi for dinner. Then it was a debate… Ben and I and our big kids were hungry so we said we were going to mongolian for lunch. A bunch of the group ended up coming. Some people did both :0

We got settled at John and Tracie’s and played more games at Moms.

It was Sam’s Birthday on the 31st so we celebrated at midnight! Sams sister flew out to spend a couple days with them and us. The youth age children all went to a dance that night with Marlee and Brinlee. They had fun and had fun going to Dutch Bros on the way home.

Another day in Paradise!!

We stayed at the house all day again! I loved it. We played a little baseball and a lot of games and I LOVED IT. The kids had so much fun cousin time!

Let the Cousin days of Blurr begin…

And then we got to do CHRISTMAS PRESENTS! cousin exchange and some gifts from Grandma!

AND THEN some kids went to bed and we went back to the games!!! Ben and Bryce and Christy and I played Ark Nova for probably 5 hours!

Benji is doing Christmas stuff too!
