Dec 26th-Jan 1st - Connecticut & New Year's!

On Thursday I went to the archery range with Mike and then I went to Connecticut to visit my family! We got to my Uncle Austin's house at night and we hung out for a little while but everyone was tired including Rudy.


The next day Mike left home to go to Peru to visit our friend who lives there! During the day we drove to my Mom's neighborhood when she was a child. It is always special to me to see where she grew up and to hear stories about my family. 


Then we went to my Aunt MaryAnn's house where we had fun playing boardgames together and later went out to eat dinner in Litchfield Connecticut. 


Afterwards we went back to my Uncle's house and spent time with him, my Aunt Melissa and Rudy. The next morning we went to my Aunt Lolita and Uncle Richard's house to make treats to bring to our family Christmas party! Later at the party we had pizza and everyone hung out and of course ended up playing Scat which is a family tradition of ours. It was a great time and I was thankful to see everyone! I love my family!


We drove back home the next day and Mike messaged me from Peru saying that he was doing archery and he got a Robin Hood where he shot an arrow into another arrow! 


The next day I cuddled with my kitty Cookie Dough and I cleaned out my room and made a donation pile. At night I went to Mike's Aunt and Uncle's house to visit with his family in town! On New Year's Eve I worked at Scott Miller during the day and then went to the Thimble Tailor to get my Miss New York USA gown tailored! I got a gorgeous Sherri Hill gown from Joeval's Formalwear but it needed to be taken in and Fatima and her family are the most talented so I was honored to have them work on my gown. 


At night I went to Mike's house and had such a nice time with friends and his family! Then I went home to watch the ball drop with my family and spent all of New Year's day with them! I hope that everyone had a happy and safe holiday!
