A new year.

The day before New Year's Eve we took Lo and Ko to Crave, our local burger joint that we used to go to when it wasn't so local... Lo's 16th Birthday, outlet shopping day with Austin and Britt (towards the end of that long, long post), and pre-Open House for Jase and Lex, to name a few.
Now that it's 5 minutes from home, you'd think we would frequent it more often, but it's one of those places you can only afford {calorie wise} once or twice a year. Everyone in the fam MUST experience it, however, so it was the perfect time for Kody to try it out.


We went early in the day so we could miss the crowds and any potential wait... nailed it.






My apologies, Lo and Ko, for not getting any better pictures haha.
Shi is obviously thoughtfully scrutinizing the flavor sensations going on in her mouth.



On to New Year's Eve.
We had a whole lotta tasty treats going on.


Kody convinced Shi to wear a Cowboys jersey.

There was a game going on (don't ask me who... I believe the Cowboys played during our church time - sorry, Kody - so maybe the BRONCOS??) and the only way Kody and Bill could watch it was via our anntenna that only works for that particular channel on the south side of the house. Lucky for us, in all our downsizing we held onto Shi's old TV haha.

Evie was so ready to par-tay.

Behold the food. And Mar and Tay's double chins.

With all that yumminess, I totally forgot I had mozzerella sticks, too.
We didn't miss 'em anyway.







We snapped a few fun pics, enjoyed our yummy food, then it was time for the party girl {Evie} to hit the hay.

 (I know... they all look like they're having so much fun, don't they?)

Afterwards we played games and watched "The best of..." video clips, Studio C, and random memes, until it was finally time to ring in 2018.

A few leftover wedding sparklers came in handy to help with the celebration.









2017 was a dang long year, heavy on mental and physical exertion, so I'm ready for a smooth and relaxed 2018! 
I'll toast to that.
