So the holidays are over. Sad. Back to working for the weekend. However, I must say we made the most of our holiday season. On New Year’s Eve we had a couple friends over to watch the Auburn-Clemson game and to ring in the new year. Maddie hates clothes but she wore her Auburn t-shirt like a champ. I wasn’t going to make her, but it was a tight game. About halfway through the second quarter, she and I looked at each other and we both knew: her team needed her. So she sported the shirt for the rest of the game, and Auburn won in OT! Well worth the sacrifice, right Maddie? Right!
After midnight, Gavin set off some fireworks in the road in front of the house – they were huge! We got them in Alabama a few years ago and I forgot how awesome Alabama fireworks are. I am happy to report that no humans, animals, or trees were injured. Cars? Well… cars are just things. (just kidding – no chattel or real estate was damaged... that we know of).
The weather on New Year’s Day was so beautiful: a little cold but sunny and clear. I went to the greenway, went to Macy’s, read, and cooked black eyed peas while Gavin relaxed and watched football. It was a great day. The good news is that this is a pretty short week, so that will help everyone ease back into the routine. Happy New Year!
