Happy New Year to you all!  Back to the grind.. today's our first day back to routine. The kids are still doing virtual school.. M is still working from home..  We had a nice winter break.. we went away for a couple of days.. we rented an Airbnb in Upstate New York. It was a very last minute decision so the pickings were slim but the place was clean and that was the most important part.  We picked Plattekill Mountain, a small mountain.. not too crowded.

Happy New Year!! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season.. we had a great December. It had the perfect amount of festivities and time spent at home relaxing. Before I do a look back and round up the year I want to share with you our little Christmas getaway.  We took the boys up to Camelback Mountain Resort and Indoor Water Park. It was a great time.. we splashed around.. took a ski lesson and then hit the slopes. D was a natural.. H not so much.. but of course that's understandable..he's still little. Mr's Claus told stories, we ate pizza in our room while watching holiday movies.. here's a photo dump.                            Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Bloglovin
