Natali and Miguel joined us a few days before New Years and on New Years Eve we drove up to McCall. Mack, Sophia and Blake stayed behind because they weren't ready to make that drive again. Lily rode up with the newlyweds.
We ate dinner then started all the games Natali had planned out. I have videos but no pictures as we bounced ping pongballs, used party blowers on cotton balls, grabbed cups, stacked cups, and basically had a lot of fun cheering and laughing.
We ended the night watching YouTube videos trying to guess cartoon theme songs or name that tune through the ages. Greg didn't survive the cartoon theme songs test and took a nap on the floor before we did the countdown.
New Years day while Greg and Andrew watched football Natali and the girls took Miguel into town to experience McCall.
We took advantage of the good weather and took a long walk up towards North Beach.
The 2nd we got up to Brundage to ski, grateful for a bit of fresh snow.
Natali, Miguel and Lily headed home from the hill, Greg came back to the condo for dinner and to pick up Andrew, I dropped Emily off in town for Raney's birthday party and Kate stayed with me at the condo to tackle the clean up then we headed home the next morning. Arriving. just in time to help finish up Chinese New Year dinner before all the guest arrived.
Over the break I took advantage of Blake time in the mornings when Mack and Sophia wanted more sleep. I loved giving her her bottle then letting her play on the floor. Such a sweetie.
Mack and Sophia planned to leave Sunday afternoon so I soaked up my last few hours with her, feeding her and letting her sleep on my chest.
Monday morning Natali got the girls donuts before school as a goodbye before she, Miguel, and Andrew hit the road. We had such a wonderful break and it was sad to tell everyone bye, but Grandma Nani came in on Saturday on time for Chinese New Year and to see Blake so we had company for two more weeks of fun.
