NYE

We headed up to Show Low the day after Christmas to spend the week and welcome the new year.  Shawn's family has been for the past few years but I was never able to get the time off work.  This year we didn't have to worry about that so we made it up for some much needed R&R.

We snuggled a lot.

The girls made a sign entering the garage.  Apparently only kids were allowed, unless of course you needed a new beer. (the fridge that kept the beer cold is in the garage).  They are too funny!

Tuesday we enjoyed some snow flurries.  It didn't snow much and didn't stick but we made the best of it and found lots of snow patches throughout the property. 

On New Years Eve we all traveled to the entrance of Sunrise for some sledding fun.

We all has so much fun! The girls kept saying they didn't like it but insisted on going again and again.  They also braved the big hill with Daddy and Papa, twice.

Here's a video compilation:

Afterwards we headed to Moose Henri's for lunch.

Shawn was the only one to not make it to the midnight hour, even Reece was awake.  I didn't have my New Years kiss from Shawn but I did from my three daughters so I was happy!  Reece sported a New Years onesie that said I'll be the queen of 2016.  She's so dang cute!

We also snuck away from the house for a day date and met up with Jessica and Nate to enjoy some appetizers and drinks at Pinetop Brewery.  

We had the best time and I am so thankful for their friendship.

Once we came back we did some exploring with the older kids. They even fed us snow.

It was such a great week and the perfect way to welcome a new year.  When we made it back home I missed being there already and can't wait to go back.  So many great memories.
