A New Year

We rang in the new year quietly at home, watching the Bruins and cooking what we like to refer to as Fried Bounty.   We make a yummy, bad for you dinner as a last hurrah before cracking down in the new year to eat and be more healthy.  This year indulgence included homemade french fries, chicken tenders and mozarella sticks.
We didn't exactly start new years day out super healthy either.  Breakfast included mimosas and cinnamon rolls.

We did counter the bad stuff with a nice little hike with the Beikmans in the afternoon.  The weather was in the mid forties and sunny perfect for a hike.  We still have no snow but sections of the trails were icy.  We returned home to watch the Patriots score 49 unanswered points to clinch home field advantage for the playoffs.  The day ended with a steak dinner.  Dom and I took a dip in the hot tub while the kids entertained themselves with movies and games.  After the hot tub Dom and I settled in to watch Aliens & Cowboys.  All in all it was a really nice beginning to the new year!
