Lazy Day


Monday morning and Michael needs to work. 

I decided to head to the store for some groceries and fun with Krista and the kids. The rest were up very late/EARLY working on wedding plans...and slept in. 

Back at home we played with my new instant pot...a gift I enjoy greatly. Today I baked really well-evenly cooked potatoes in 10 min, steamed green beans in 2 minutes, and did I tell you it can do dried beans in 10 - 15 min? Amazing. I wish we needed some rice - I want to try that feature. LOL 

Arielle and BreAnne made a tofu "cheese" ball.  Everyone played games and chatted....Dakota and Izaak like "Command and Conquer" - I think that's the name of the game. 

Zander loves his new track 

We had planned to take dinner to the fellowship hall and watch the Alamo Bowl (Go Ducks!) but discovered the TV doesn't have ESPN....and we couldn't find a way to pay to stream it....so in the end....Krista, Nolan and I joined Michael to watch at the club on base. We were the only ones watching the game; and we had fun. 
Krista matches my computer
We got home from the game and Michael needed to stretch his shoulder (daily personal torture) and get ready for another day at work. The rest of us played games.....


Krista, Arielle, Alex, Stacia and I played Ticket to Ride...

Somewhere during the evening I realized TOMORROW is New Year's Eve....oops. But I think I have everything to pull together the planned celebration. 

Choosing Joy!
