New Year's Eve, New Year's Day

On Wednesday, Stace and I left the girls with Nanny, and took a trip to Chard to visit our friends Andy and Jenny. Though they would have enjoyed seeing the girls, Cora and Violet were still in their jammies when we left, and it was nice to have a bit of a "date day" together.

Andy and Jenny treated us to a nice lunch. Because we joked that we often forget to take photos together for the blog, we set up some silly ones. 

Stace and I stopped at Chard's cemetery on our way back to Martock, to put some flowers on the grave of his Nan and Pop. 

Wednesday was New Year's Eve, and this year we stayed in together. We bought some fun nibbles and competed against each other with bowling on the Wii.

When the clock struck midnight, we toasted each other and watched on the television as fireworks lit up the London skyline.

On New Year's Day, after sleeping in sufficiently, we went to Dean and Jenny's house for a lovely roast dinner. We have eaten like royalty the past week!

That evening, poor Stace ended up at the bottom of a big pile-up. Ooof!

Happy New Year, to all our friends and family!
