HAPPY NEW YEAR!
We came back from Effa's house. I got stuck with making a lego spy house for HOURS. And then later at night it was crushed, destroyed, pummeled.
I had some Haribo gummies.
Also, I had some of Aunt Karen's ham and chili, which were both the bomb dot com.
I got stuck into sitting on the couch watching news bloopers and America's funniest Videos for a while…
Also, I saw a huge double rainbow around mid-day.
Ugh, and I got stuck eating leftover mac and cheese for lunch (too much of it).
All the village girls and it seemed all the village adults were there too.
In particular, my favorite village adult is Ellie. She had short grey hair and wore a red sweater. She greeted everyone with a hug, and sat in the kids' area at the couch. When asked what she would like to drink by Kevin, she responded with, "Whatever the kids are having, what is it these days, 7up?"
Also, she goes swimming EVERY morning. Reminder: the summers here in New Quay are around 60 degrees…So the winter water seems unbearable.
At 12 all the adults joined in this hand holding thing with a song.
Zoe got home around 2:30 and had a super eventful evening. She went to the 18 or older concert, got front row seats, met the band, went to a super fancy hotel in the minister's car, got served free awesome food and a strawberry dessert by guys with silver trays and white gloves, saw fireworks twice, and got to have crackers… Sigh…I wish I could've done that...
