Happy New Year!
This is the first post for my weekly updates that I hope to do for every week in 2020. :) They are posts just to share our everyday, normal and simple life.
The last evening of 2019, we spent with our friends from Heritage at Matt and Alisa Keck's home. We enjoyed the time so much just fellowshipping with our new family in Ohio!
We left around 11:15pm and for the first year, in a very long time, I was up to watch that ball fall. Ha!
New Year's Day dawned with beautiful clear skies and sunshine! Any time in Ohio in the winter you get sunshine, you try to enjoy it!
For lunch and the afternoon, we drove to my parent's home in Grover Hill and spent New Year's Day with them. Dad made us chili and then we played Phase Ten.

It is always weird having holidays in the middle of the week! Throws you off big time. But, back to school for us Thursday and Friday.
Thursdays, we try to invite different folks over from our church to get to know them. This Thursday, we had Jesse and Dayna Ellis and their three sons for dinner. They are a hoot and just fun people to be around! We really enjoyed having them over.
For dinner, I made Mississippi Roast (what some people call it) and marinated chicken legs, mac and cheese, roasted red potatoes, corn and chef side salads. We had ice cream for dessert.
Dayna brought a sweet fruit and nut basket with a few special extras - homemade herbal tea and hand soap from their side family business.
I have loved having that tea every day!
Max giving me the look with those puppy dog eyes hoping my shoes mean we are going on a walk. LOL!
Friday was school and bowling league night.
We made it to the weekend after a very busy last month of 2019!
