Christmas Vacation Fun

The Girls had the BEST TIME during Christmas Break!

Diana and I headed out to the movies one night with our Dance pals- we saw the new Jumanji movie which was cute and had dinner- we really loved the fairly new Chunky's in Manchester!

and Eva finally got her first play date with her Bestie Kyla- we took them to Chuck E Cheese and they truly "Lived Their Best Lives" HA!

Big Sis Diana and Pal Lucy "helped" too ;)

and the littles even got a job- "helping to sell cotton candy" - hysterical!

We did a puzzle.....

There were sleepovers with friends and an adventure with Mimi and Papa- Frozen II, Dinner and a Sleepover :)

Papa Pete lead the charge and the guys of the family built Eva a new hockey rink!

and Mama and Daddy even enjoyed a few nights out with besties too....I wasn't very good at taking pics...I was actually trying to live in the moment!

Here's one that says it all though...ha!

Fave Binge-Watches of Christmas Break

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel- Season 3- Amazon

Yep waited a year and now have to wait another year- I am having trouble with this concept

Although I love Midge- her character, her fashion- this season wasn't as fast-moving as the first two HOWEVER I still loved it and her and would highly recommend!

Dirty John- Netflix

Oh friends- this one is based on a true story and all I can say is WOW- we couldn't stop watching- I couldn't stop being scared and I couldn't stop being mad at Debra!  How could she be so naive?  Yes...we all know what blind love is too though right?

Unbelievable- Netflix

Another one based on a true story- gripping crime drama and unbelievable yes...very graphic...based on a serial rapist...excellent series

New Year Fun!

NYE at the McLain's was cozy full of QT, games and many laughs...we went with an Asian theme and each of us made unique dishes so it was the perfect little night.  The kids had a ball too...I put together the balloon activity game for them (that you see on Pinterest) and they actually followed through with the activities every hour- so fun!

1st activity was enjoying sparklers outside :)

and the New Year's Day tradition of the Fab Four's "Last Lunch" happened...it is our last fun meal before we start cleansing and detoxing and getting back to our programs...so we lived it up..literally!

That's a wrap!  Have a cozy weekend friends XO
