Happy New Year! Let's recap December really quickly - we went to a holiday light show at a farm, and it was awesome! Unfortunately, Henry got sick the next week and I had to miss my company Christmas party. Then it felt like I was sick for half the month, with a cold and then a stomach bug right before Christmas. We took Henry to meet Santa, and it did not go well! There were lots of tears. We spent Christmas Eve at my dad's house with most of my siblings and their families, and then my in-laws came over on Christmas Day. After that, we traveled up to Newport, Rhode Island for a trip with my sister, brother, and their families. My mom, dad, and stepmom also came up, so it was a special trip. We haven't all been able to get together, especially with the kids, in quite a long time. We stayed in a big townhouse with a view of the beach. We took a stroll on a snowy Cliff Walk, took in a holiday lights show, toured historic mansions, and rang in the new year together.

Happy New Year to you, Angela!! Sorry you guys had some illness, but also happy you got to spend time with family and have lots of celebrating. I read A Merry Little Lie and enjoyed it. Planning on 'free-range' reading in 2026 - as in, have fun and read what 'speaks' to me at the moment.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Angela! Sorry to hear you were sick for a lot of December, but glad you got in some quality family time over the holidays!
ReplyDeleteAwww, I hate that you all were sick. Boo! It's wonderful you got to take a family trip. My cousin's Christmas card was her daughter running with tears streaming from Santa. I loved the card.
