New Years Eve Wrap Up

We really had a low key NYE for the first time ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We got snacks and watched TV and that was it.

We did do something fun for New Years Day. We went and watched the polar plunge. That was hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The boat club had 400 people sign up to plunge...crazy. The funny costumes were the best.

After that, we went to a bar with my dad and brothers and had a few drinks. Then my husband and I went and got something to eat. We rented a movie ("Barry Munday" horrible-don't rent it) and watch that and went to bed.

Now it is football Sunday. Bears vs Packers is the game of the season in my home because I like the BEARS and the hubby loves the PACKERS. I made some vegetable soup and brownies for the game.

(I actually made the mocha brownies from the Pioneer Women's cookbook and I have to say that she let me down on this one. I don't really like them. The recipe said to bake in an 8x8 square pan and I think a bigger pan ((thinner brownie)) might be better. I can't believe she let me down on that one because I love every other recipe I ever tried of hers...the frosting is the best part of it)
