Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!

I realize that I'm a day late with the New Year wishes but yesterday was a "lay low" kind of day with my lovebugs.  With the hustle and bustle of the holidays it seems that we haven't had a moment to do "just family" activities.  The holidays started sad.  I was moping; upset that I couldn't spend time with my family and missing my Dad a lot.  I realized that the holidays were what I make of them.  And here I am, blessed to have an awesome "extended" military family.  I am so blessed!

I did not make any resolutions for the New Year.  I do not want to set myself up for failure.  I'm going to say I have goals.  What the goals are is unknown right now.  Blogging.  Reading.  Pinterest inspired activities.  Learn how to crochet.  Get in shape.  Goals.  If I call them goals it seems attainable.

We had a get together on NYE.  It was mayhem and chaos.  I loved it.  So much love and laughter in the house! We were so exhausted that we toasted the New Year at 10 PM with Annika.  It was perfection for us.

Annika is not going back to school until Wednesday so we'll spend the day lounging tomorrow.  I love those moments with her.  They are so special. Now, it's time for me to snuggle in with my lovebugs.
