We had what was probably our most laid back New Year’s Eve that we have had in quite some time. Alabama was playing football, and we just made the most of spending the day at home relaxing. We did add a few bits of fun in the mix too!

Looking Ahead in 2022
So I have been a little MIA for the last few weeks as I focused on spending all of my time with our families and friends during the holiday season. During the holidays, we dealt with sickness (not COVID related thankfully), lots of traveling, spending time with everyone that we could, playing with Melody as much as possible, and surviving. The key word was definitely surviving. Don’t get me wrong, I did enjoy the last few weeks for the most part. But now that the return of normalcy is upon us, I am exhausted!! I feel like I need a break, but technically we just had a two and a half week break. So I decided to start this year with more intention.
New Year's Resolution
So we made a “resolution” last year to help treasure the memories of the year that we tend to forget. I think Brad thought I was crazy at first but it was fun and became part of our routine. So once a week we would write down our favorite or most memorable moment(s) from the week. Then I would put it in a jar. On New Year’s Day we read them all together as a family. It was so much fun to look back at things we forgotten or moments that really made us laugh. I can’t wait to do it again this year!
Cookie Dough Dip Recipe
I made this dip for New Year's Eve and thought I would share it. It was super delicious, but it is very rich! I found this recipe on the Delish website. I changed up a few things below, but it pretty close to theirs! See below:
