Happy New Year!

2023-01-01

We started the week still at Freya's house. Dad and I put on our matching Sithmas shirts.

Merry Sithmas!

Mom and Dad.

From Freya's we went to Grandpa Al and Grandma Wynne's house. I got to open some more presents.

Excited to see what's under the wrapping.

Mando's N-1 Starfighter!

What. Is. This?

It's the Millennium Falcon!

And an Imperial Light Cruiser.

The police helicopter with a magnet.

Then we went to Brad and Kelsey's house for another Christmas. We stayed for a couple of hours, but I was feeling a little overwhelmed with all the people and the noise, so we were the first to leave.

Playing cars with Callen.

I stayed with Grandpa Al and Grandma Wynne for the week. I helped build the Winne-the-Pooh set I gave them, and then I went to help Grandpa Kevin and GG build the Batman cowl. Mom and Dad went home for a little peace and quiet.

Dad says it looks like we robbed the LEGO store. I think it looks like I have a lot of generous family.

Kara, Josh, and Freya picked me up Friday - on the way to my house to celebrate the New Year.

On my way home.

We played games.

I slept in a pile of stuffies.

We also went sledding, and Jonathan met us at the hill. We had just had some freezing rain on top of the snow, so the hill was basically ice - good for fast sledding.

Freya's in orange, I am in blue.

Me, Freya, and Jonathan. I don't know who the kid in the background is.

The three of us again.

Here are some videos - some are in slow motion, so don't worry - your internet is not broken.

And we all took another try at flipping the whipped cream in the air.

Mom just can't seem to get it in the air.

What if Josh helps?

OK - four at once, in slow motion. (I know it looks like Josh caught two, but he really didn't.)

Dad did manage to catch some in his mouth, but most of it on his chin.

We also played a lot of Breath of the Wild over the weekend. Mom and Kara played a lot of this game called Nertz. And Freya and I watched a movie called Spirited Away - we both really liked it.

And that was the last week of the year. Kara, Josh, and Freya went home Sunday after lunch and I worked on some LEGO building and watched a Fast and Furious movie with Dad.

Happy New Year! Take care!
