Happy New Year

This New Years Eve my family decided to try out some fondue recipes for dinner, which turned out to be a great success. We had planned to do some moonlight snowshoeing afterwards, but because it was so cold outside we decided against it, and sadly didn't have another opportunity while I was home, but I am excited to get to use my new snowshoes soon!






(This is actually really cool... get a marshmellow and put it on a stick, then cover it in melt chocolate, and let it harden. Volà, you now have the perfect hot chocolate stir stick!)






However, new years was still a lot of fun just spending the time with family... and on January 1st my grandparents were able to come down to visit, so we had a lot of fun with them, especially our intense game of rumikub... and trying to beat Matt, Alex's boyfriend at barrell of Pirates (same as monkeys but i guess the giant kinder egg company has something against monkeys haha)



Hope everyone had a great new years!
