New Year's 2016

We rang in the New Year at home as it would be one of the last days at our Mesa rental. We had a few  neighbors over to celebrate (east coast time) and kept it casual and early. If I can remember back to six months ago, we missed the east coast ball drop on TV because we were watching a telecast that was in New Orleans which is central time so we were all confused. In any case, a few people managed to stay up past midnight our time so the early night was wishful thinking. 




It took three dads and two dogs to figure out if the tri tip was ready. 


Stupid pet tricks. 









Since we have moved, Roxy and Lollipop haven't seen each other since. Gotta set up a doggie playdate! 








The last few standing...

Christmas 2016


Stocking stuff!


Every year Samantha has her girls set out to catch Santa. Not sure if they have divulged anything good to her. 


Video: Lollipop got new Christmas socks in her stocking. She LOVED them as you can see! 






















Grandma and Poppy arrived! 








Meredith stopped by!




Most dangerous gift Santa brought, an electric scooter.





Roo wanted a picture with Gingerbread Thatcher. 







Walking off dinner. 






Ended the evening with Leanne's family joining us for drinks and dessert. 

Until next year, Santa!
