I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe New Year's Eve and is off to a good start in the new year. Michael and I went out the cabin that Jaime and Jeremy were staying at for a few days this week in Brown County. The cabin was amazing, with a lot of attention to details (such as the hooks and handles were made out of antlers, etc.). We had to sneak Sammy out there since there weren't supposed to be any pets. I had to leash her and go outside everytime she needed to. I am not used to that having a fenced backyard at home. But she did really well, not barking or making too much noise while she was out there. We had some kabobs for dinner that Jeremy prepared on the grill. They were delicious. We had chicken, steak, shrimp, potatoes, mushrooms, etc. Jeremy had marinated each in a yummy marinade that day. Most of the night was spent playing board games and playing on the wii. We watched the ball drop on tv; I think we turned the wii off maybe 15 minutes before it dropped. We finally went to bed at 2am, and I was ready. I'm getting old. When we woke up Jeremy fixed us pancakes, eggs, and bacon for breakfast. Again, very good. It was a good New Years and I am so happy we were able to celebrate it with them.
My resolution is to try and look at the good side of things and people. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and I want to make sure I keep that in mind. I know God doesn't give us anything we can't handle. I know that this coming year will be full of struggles and difficulties and so I need to make sure I always remember this.
