Happy New Year!

Hi everyone!

I hope you all had a great New Years Eve... I am still kind of off work (working a little tomorrow and Monday, then hitting the ground running Tuesday with a big cabinet project), so you get to see more everyday life photos from moi. Hope that's okay? 

I'm excited about the new year (though, I kind of feel like January is the most depressing month of the year, no?), and, like I said last January (hah!) I hope to have lots more personal/home/DIY projects for you guys this year. I think with the purchasing of a new home in our future, it'll be a lot more attainable this year than last. 

Anyway... here are a few pictures from my phone of our New Year's Eve and day. 

We started the night out with cocktails at our house before heading to dinner at Serpas. I rearranged the furniture a bit, to make it more comfortable for chatting...

Much better for hanging out. I made a little snack tray, too...

(Mika and myself. He was really excited about having his picture taken... again)

They had these cute balloons hanging inside:

and outside, I managed to find a kitty cat (hah!)... he was definitely a housecat that was out to play on NYE, because he immediately came running:

we rang the new year in, and the following day went to a friend's for a lunch... I made Jordan's mom's macaroni and cheese and it was muy delicioso... here it is before it went into the oven:

completely unhealthy yet delicious.

my plate from lunch... I dipped my beans into barbeque sauce from the pork they had, since I don't eat pigs. ;)

here is my friend's cute couch/pillows/art... I want to steal the pillow on the bottom left:

the end.

hope you all had a great new years eve too!
