New Year’s Eve
Happy Monday, y’all! I started my day off with a healthy breakfast, the first day of C25K and an arm and ab workout from the Tone It Up girls…pretty productive if I say so myself. I’ll share more about all that tomorrow though.
Since I took Thursday and Friday off from blogging, I wanted to recap our New Year’s Eve.
Unlike last year, we kept things real low key to ring in 2015. Partly because Cory and I had to work this year but mostly because I still wasn’t feeling 100%. I thought I just had a cold but after five days of the worst sinus pressure I’ve ever felt, I finally gave in on Tuesday and went to the doctor. Turns out, I had a nasty sinus infection and started a round of antibiotics and a steroid spray. Between feeling under the weather and working, I just didn’t have any energy to decorate {or even plan} a party.
Thankfully, our friends don’t need the decorations to still have a good time!
This is the first year that Kaylen has spent New Year’s with us and she was so much fun! She was so proud of her outfit, especially her necklace.
The Hensons were out of town for Christmas so we let Kaylen open her gift before everyone else got there.
And Uncle Cory Ninja painted her finger nails. Bless it!
We snacked on some good food, watched some football, shot off a few fireworks {which K loved!} and waited for the ball to drop.
No one else I’d rather ring the new year in with!
Allen had to show off his New Year’s attire. Pretty classy, right?
And the boys wanted a picture just like the girls :)
Mine and Jessica’s traditional New Years picture included K this year to which she was trying to show off her nails. This girl cracks me up!
We love us some Allen and Tammie! This is the fourth New Years we’ve spent with them.
My love. So excited to spend another year with this guy.
And we can’t forget the furbabies.
Cory thought he was to avoid the mess that is confetti this year but right before the ball dropped, I remembered I had a couple confetti packs left from last year. Good thing K can’t read because they had 2014 on them.
Judging by the smile on her face, she enjoyed the confetti. A year old and all.
And then she immediately wanted to clean it up. A girl after Uncle Cory’s heart.
When I woke up on Thursday morning, Cory had already cleaned up the house {you can be jealous, it’s okay!} and we spent the entire day in our pjs, watching football. There were lots of puppy snuggles and cheering for Oregon and Ohio State. A lazy New Year’s day has kinda become our tradition and there’s no other way I’d rather start 2015!
Check back tomorrow to hear about my life goals for 2015!
