We have gone up to the cabin for New Year's Eve almost every year since we were teenagers. Last year we weren't able to go up bc the kids had dance and basketball, but this year we made sure it worked out so that we could go. Unfortunately Brayden had practice all weekend so we arranged for him to stay home with one of his bball friends. Our new Tahoe isn't quite ready to haul a bunch of stuff yet (we don't have rails on the top nor do we have a hitch carrier) so we decided we would need to take 2 cars which meant the girls each invited a friend. I was surprised we were able to find friends on such short notice, however we weren't able to find one for Brielle.
Josh, me, and 7 girls headed up on Thursday night and made it up there around 9:15. We didn't have water for the first night but got it all fixed in the morning so we were able to turn all the water on. We have played games non stop, watched movies, and spent time sledding outside. We knew it would snow the whole time we were up here and snow it did! We got well over a foot of snow while we were up there. Steve, Kay, and Rachael came up on Saturday evening and spent the rest of the weekend with us. It was a great trip and a much needed get away!
I had sent the younger girls to bed around 10:45 on New Year's Eve, but Rachael's baby was crying so much they couldn't fall asleep. So I let them come back upstairs and count down to the new year. They all got pots and pans out and had fun banging them at midnight. 2022 was a great year full of ups and downs. We can't wait to see what 2023 brings!
