New Year's

This New Year's Eve and day we spent with the Puzey's!!! We started out by having a super yummy soup made by Myrna, a very creamy potato and chicken!!! Rachel and her sweet little family were there too!!! We were later joined by the rest of the Puzey clan and also my dad!!! We started our celebrating with yummy finger foods...meatballs, cocktail wieners wrapped in bacon, mini buns with pulled pork, fruit and chips and punch...all put together again by Myrna!!!! Jared set up the ping pong table and ALL the kids loved it!!! Armin even got pretty good at it!!!!

The little kids rang in the new year at 10ish and then were put to bed!! The big kids stayed up and watched an episode of Dr. Who while the adults visited!!!

The next morning we were treated to a yummy pancake breakfast and more visiting!!! Some of us headed over to Dave and Char's and got the grand tour of their new house!!! It sure is beautiful and the finishing touches are coming along!!!!  After the tour the grandkids opened their cousin presents and their gifts from Grandma!! Everyone was super excited for their gifts and had fun assembling Lego and having nerf gun wars!!!!  While it was still light out we went outside and shot off Calum's rocket he was given by grandpa Glen for his birthday!!!! Again it was quite spectacular with how high it went!!!

By mid afternoon we were all ready to eat again so we enjoyed some super delicious sour cream enchiladas!!!!! Myrna really is a fantastic cook!!!! After the dinner we all got to listen to how very talented the Puzey's are!!! Each family took part in a talent show!!! Emry sang What child is This while Jared played the guitar!!! Little Jonas sang Santa Claus is Coming to Town! Cora and Leah sang an old folk song while Dave played the guitar. Bowen sang while Lalainia played the piano, what a sweet little voice he has!!! Myrna and her girls sang, which left quite a few with teary eyes!!! And Lalainia sang Grown Up Christmas List, again leaving many with teary eyes!!!! 

I was so happy to have my dad there with us for those two days, Armin played ping pong with him quite a bit!!!! It was great ringing in the new year with those I love so much! A great start to the year!! I look forward to what this year has in store and for the memories that are sure to be made!!!
