New Years!

We had a quiet week.  There was no high school swim practice, no water polo practices to coach.  Mostly just enjoying time together, playing games, making food and SLOWLY taking down Christmas Decorations.  Mom and Dad headed home Monday morning and got back to Texas safely.  David had fun playing with his friend Paxton.  

Wednesday night for New Years Eve, we went to the Thornton's new house for a New Year's party, then around 9, we headed out to go back home and hang out.  Dan decided to get us a new puzzle for New Year's (even though he doesn't usually do them) and so he ordered one on Amazon.  I usually do 1000 piece puzzles because we can finish it in one night.  He got a 1500 piece puzzle of Hogwarts.  It's beautiful, and its all dark blues and browns....  I enjoyed it, but Eileen has decreed that he can NO LONGER CHOOSE THE PUZZLES.  She was very frustrated by it.  Though since it took us the better part of 4 days, my back wasn't very happy with it either.... :)  

Thrusday we took it easy and slept late and hardly did anything all day.  Then Friday, it was time to start thinking about getting back to routines....  Kinda - the kids were gonna have Monday off too, so really we have until Tuesday to get back to normal.  

Saturday I got to go to Parkrose for water polo with Anna, which was a lot of fun and then Open Polo in the evening which was pretty quiet.  It's nice to have her back and get to play with her again!
