This morning Mama had some leftover pie dough left so she made us a nutella snowflake! It was super yummy! 

                               

                               

Then Mama took me to Macy's to get some new shoes. For some reason the shoes that Santa brought me didn't fit right so we figured that I needed to try some shoes on. I haven't been in a store in almost a year!! Mama hasn't even been in a department store in a year. BUT, we parked by the shoe department door, there was almost no one in the store and we were in and out AND got a cool new pair of shoes!

                              

                              

                               

Later we started prepping for our very special traditional New Year's Eve dinner!

                             

Then we started our family game night! First up, DOS!

Then we moved on to Pictionary! It was so fun drawing and having everyone try and guess what we drew!

                               

We had lots of laughs! And believe it or not, we're all pretty good at drawing!

                                

                               

Then we played a few rounds of Pop the Pig and Don't Break the Ice while Mama and Daddy worked on dinner.

Then Daddy got our lobster claw appetizer all ready for us and helped crack the claws for us! It was awesome and a great way to start our New Year's Eve celebration!

Then our prime rib was ready and boy did it look and smell great!

                                

And it was cooked pretty perfectly (for Mama anyway). Daddy could have eaten it more raw but Mama won't allow it...It was perfect!

Everything was so tasty and cooked to perfection. We were so happy with how it all turned out!

After dinner we played a little Deer Pong and ran around and played for a while.

And before we knew it, it was 20 seconds until midnight!!!

                                

                              

                               

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021!!!! Looking forward to a great, new year!

Today Mama mod podged the oyster shells from the oysters that we had on Christmas Eve! We all think they turned out really pretty! 

                              

I did some reading today while my brothers got some reading and school work done so we're not doing it on Sunday before school starts back up after Christmas break.

                               

And later we got to have a sleep over in Daddy and Mama's room. We love having slumber parties with them!

                              

 This morning we played some video games and then we convinced Mama to try out the strawberry ice cream in the soft serve ice cream maker again...

It tasted delicious. BUT, Mama kept the mixture in the freezer when it should have probably been in the fridge so it had a very icy texture. There were little ice chips in the ice cream. Definitely not soft serve texture...

                                

                               

But don't worry, it didn't stop us from eating it!

Later for dinner we had steak fajita night! If nothing else during this pandemic we sure are eating well!

                              

                               

Today we started the day by me reading my new books to Daddy! I love them and Daddy said I did a great job reading them! 

                              

Then we headed to MeMa and PopPop's house for lunch! But first PopPop went outside to scare the squirrels away from the bird feeders with his super soaker. It was really funny!

                                

                               

Then we ran around and played. Our usual at MeMa and PopPop's house!

                               

Then we got to have a fabulous lunch from MeMa and PopPop's leftovers from Christmas! Boy were they GOOD!!!

                               

It was a really fun afternoon and we were so happy to hang out with MeMa and PopPop...

                               

And we got to have dessert!!!

When we got home we decided to take a nice family walk. We picked up our friend Liam on the way and just took a nice long stroll through the neighborhood!

                                

                              

                              

                               

                              

Later when we got home we attempted to use our soft serve ice cream maker. Mama let us all do a part.

                               

                               

                                  

                              

                              

The ice cream didn't happen tonight because Mama didn't freeze the bowl long enough...but then Mama was working on more hot cocoa bomb flavors. Cinnamon roll with salted caramel chips, S'mores, unicorns with rainbow marshmallows, snowmen with regular hot cocoa and peanut butter...

                               

                               

They turned out really well and since we didn't have ice cream to test we decided to test some of Mama's new bomb flavors! It was a great night!
