Happy 2016! The first day of the new year is always an exciting one. There is nothing but a fabulous year in front of us, and everything is clean and hopeful. I pray that 2016 holds many good things for our family, and I intend to personally work toward it..."Good Morning! It's a great day to be alive!" My husband has said it for years and I think it is a nice way to begin our days.
I'm also hoping to remove the word "perfect" from my vocabulary. Nothing is life is perfect, and nothing is all bad either. I'm hoping to strive for goodness in everything I do each and every day, and that is how I plan to live my life.
The kids and I enjoyed our evening last night. Our dinner consisted of wings, potato skins, and cheese sticks, and the kids enjoyed movies while I watched (some pretty crappy) football games. Andrew visited with our friends and when he arrived home we poured a glass of wine and glasses of Sunkist for the kids into champagne glasses, and rang in the new year.
Today is the one day of the year where there is great football (go Irish) and there are no commitments. We've purchased some shrimp cocktail, and Andrew is making ham and bean soup for our day. I am hoping to play some games with the kids and just enjoy the first day of our brand new year.
