Happy new year!
We celebrated New Year's in quiet fashion. Some friends of ours host a family dinner party every year on New Year's Eve in the early evening, so we went to visit with them and had a great time - kids running around, parents in lively conversation. We came home, made a fire in the fireplace, and watched some movies until midnight. Then I think all of us were in bed and asleep by about 12:30. The girls don't quite have the stamina yet, and the parents have lost theirs. Since all of this was fairly low-key, we don't even have any pictures to show.
New Year's Day, Nick and I did some FIRST Lego League work, Maria had a playdate and sleepover with her friend Nora, and Chelsea and Mary did some work. Anna joined in on the Nora playdate but was not included on the sleepover, and this was a source of great upsetment. We don't know many kindergarteners who are doing sleepovers, but Anna feels she is ready!
