Goodbye 2015

This week brought an end to 2015.  Jeremy had to work on New Year's Eve, but got off in the early afternoon and we decided to take that kids to Chuck E Cheese for the evening.  I think the last time we went to Chuck E Cheese was Spring Break and since then Carrigan has become much more interested in playing the games and not any less scared of Check E Cheese himself.  The kids (and the adults too) had a good time and we had no problem using up our huge pile of tokens.  Afterwards, we grabbed some dinner and headed home to hunker in for the night.

By the time we got home it was a little before 8pm and past the kids normal bedtime.  C.C. decided she had had enough fun and quickly went to bed.  Merrick on the other hand stayed up for ice cream and was beyond thrilled to get to watch his first ever Star Wars movie (we recently decided to let him watch the PG ones and started with Episode I).  It was about 10:30 when the movie was over and Merrick was ready for bed.

As for Jeremy and I, we stayed up a while longer and then got ready for bed.  Technically we did make it to midnight before falling asleep but from the comfort of our warm, cozy bed.

We are now a few days into 2016 and I do have some fun to report on, but for the sake of a clean break for blog book purposes that will have to wait.  Spoiler alert though, it involves a lot of white...

Peace out 2015.  You have treated us well.  Here is hoping 2016 will be as kind.
