New Year's came and went so fast, I'm having trouble keeping up with it! We enjoyed a fun New Year's Eve. After a late lunch we too a trip to Downtown Raleigh where there were all sorts of festivities. We walked around taking in all the sights, sounds and smells of the First Night festival. By the time we finished watching the people's parade, we were pretty cold, so we headed to Daddy's office where we warmed up with some hot chocolate. While enjoying our hot chocolate we counted down and saw a huge crane drop an acorn to bring in the new year. (It was 7PM but we pretended it was midnight).
So far it has been a good 2017. We were getting back in the groove of school and activities, but it was interrupted by a huge winter storm that dropped lots of sleet and snow which left us stuck in the house for many days. By the fifth day, I was begging to go to school! The snow was fun the first day. Mr. Greg let us borrow his sleds and I went sledding for my first time! As always, I was apprehensive at first, but after my first slide, I wanted to go again and again! We took walks in the snow, made footprints all over the backyard, and threw ice chunks onto the icy pond to get out of the house. Mom felt bad that we couldn't really play in the icy snow, so she made us some play clay that we could use to build snowmen. It's been fun, but I am ready to get back to my schedule!!
