Hurricanes game!

We went to the Hurricanes Hockey game on MLK Day!

Our seats were better than we expected- in a place that had its own food area and bathrooms.

Here is when they came out before the game started!

Hallie was excited to say "Let's Go Canes!" with the crowd.

Pics when they were warming up.

 

#20 is Sebastian Aho, one of Justin's favorites.

#11 is Jordan Staal

Both goals were on our side! 

There were also 2 fights (one including Seth Jarvis and lots of bumping into the wall on our side!

Playing!

Celebrating after the game!

New Years!

The Starnes crew came on New Year's Eve.

The kids did a sleepover downstairs.

Hallie ans Isaiah watched the series finale of Stranger Things together.

Lesley took a video at midnight.

Most of us went to see Zootopia 2 on New Year's Day. Then, Justin and Isaiah went to hit golf balls, and the girls walked around the YMCA outdoor track (with Romeo).

On the 2nd, Buffie and Anne were able to come for a lunch visit, then we went over to our house for a little while to play Nintendo Switch games like golf, volleyball  basketball  and bowling.

Plus they got to see the cats.

 

Christmas!

Gingerbread houses at church

Mom Deda, Ellie, the kids and I went on Monday., the 22nd to Asheville, to see the gingerbread houses.

But so many had the same idea that they couldn't  or wouldn't let others in. 

 Instead, we went to Trader Joe's, Mast store, and the mall before heading home. I was thankful the kids seem to always go with the flow and weren't disappointed.

We stayed at Karen's on the 23rd.

These houses didn't work out

 

No pics at Linda and Gary's.

At GG and Grandad.

Halloween & Thanksgiving (yes it's late!)

 We took Justin's friend Korbyn to an LR football game.

 Halloween on 6th street.

Justin had Grandview basketball tryouts that evening. We were proud he did it even though he didn't make the team.

Mckenzie's wedding.

Deda took her grandkids and Hallie to Bitmore

the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

The kids went on a long walk by themselves.
