This morning Finn woke up with a fever and a really bad croop cough and I woke up with a deep cough too so Mama and Daddy said we weren't leaving the house at all today! Even Mama's throat hurts. So Mama let me open my Paw Patrol play doh set!! Woo hoo!

                                   

                                    

                                    

Finn and I did a little iPad after breakfast...



Then I got to build my car that Nana and Papi got me for Christmas. It was so fun to use my very own drill to put the pieces on. It was so cool!!
       
                                  

                                   

                                   

                                    

Then I just went and layed down with Mama. I just wasn't feeling good and even playing on the iPad wasn't making me feel better. I just needed some snuggling with Mama.

                                   

                                   

Later it was time for Mama to prep for our very special New Year's Eve traditional dinner...prime rib! She made the horseradish sauce and the rub for the roast!



Then it was time to prep the roast!

                                   

I had to come take a peek and see what all of this good stuff going on in the kitchen was!

                                   

Even our friend Joseph thought it looked pretty delicious!

                                  


                                 

                                   

I decided to make some towers while Mama and Daddy got everything ready for our dinner tonight. I'm a really good tower builder!

                                  

Mama and Daddy decided to make some drinks while they worked. They sure looked good...



The smells from the oven were so good!! I had to take a peak and see how things were cooking. Is it ready yet?



                                   

And when it was finally ready Daddy took more pictures of that meat than he's taken of us all year long! Okay, not that many but he did take a lot. But we'll admit, that prime rib sure looked amazing!

                                  



                                    

                                   

                                    

This was Daddy's plate! He had a Flintson's piece of meat!

                                  

Dinner was so, so good! I loved the steak and Kai ate it up. He even cleaned the bone off for Lucy. Hope she didn't want any of that meat...Even the veggies were so delicious. Mama knocked it out of the park. 

                                  

                                   

                                  

                                  

                                  

                                   

                                  

Poor Finn. He just couldn't hang. I think his cold just finally got him and he was out before dinner was even ready! He slept though our special dinner but we made sure to save lots for him so that tomorrow he can have a plate of food. My poor little brother needed to sleep it off. I hope he feels better tomorrow!

                                   

I told Mama and Daddy that I wanted to stay up until midnight. I almost made it. At about 10:40 or so I went to my room to read until 12 but I just couldn't keep my eyes open. Oh well, maybe next New Year's Eve I'll stay up to see the ball drop! HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016!
