A new year

New Year's Eve: kicking it off with some tasty appetizers. Otherwise known as Ann not wanting to cook another elaborate holiday meal. Everybody likes a bunch of tasty nibbles, right?
New Year's Day: Daddy Date
Craig and Nora went on a Daddy date to the Dollar Store, no Mama, no Charlotte. Remember the whole fiasco on my birthday? I told Nor that Daddy would make it up to her another time. I picked today. They left and came home about half an hour later with gummy worms, chips, and shower cleaner. Now who's the winner here?

Daddy and his girls; Did somebody say EZ cheese? yeah...rockin' it with EZ Cheese and Chicken Biscuit crackers. Apparently Craig developed a fondness for this combo underway in the Navy. It kinda grosses me out and it's turned into a "special" occasion snack. It must be good because the kids and dog were like white on rice when he produced it for a mid-day snack!


Horrible picture, but there were like 5 deer in the yard this evening. That's the most I've seen in the yard while it's still been light. Between the birds of yesterday and the deer, I feel like I'm living in a real nature preserve.

How about the topic of an elaborate meal? When was the last time for that, Newport? ;)
