New years!

Blog post came just a big late but I knew I had to still write it! Having the habit of trying to remember to write in my blog when these events happening is getting a bit tough for me even though my life is not that busy! 

On New years eve Jesse and I had plans...plans I know you heard me correctly? We had PLANS! Being the hermits that we were we knew we had to step out of our comfort zone and my coworker Sage had invited me to her New Years party. I thought perfect opportunity for me to socialize and extrovert with my introverted self and for Jesse to just interact with someone other than me. Perfect situation right?  Sage had said that normally her parties were crazy, drinking and dancing until 5 in the morning. Dog sledding with her two great danes, etc. Crazy antics at her parties and we wanted to participate with them. Also I was extremely honored that Sage had invited me and Jesse to come to her party that really warmed our hearts. 

When we went to their party there was lots of food! Tons and tons of people. We got overwhelmed with how many people were there, the loud music and the amount of alcohol (tbh). We started to talk to one of her friends that the husband did eavestrough work as well and had a nice conversation with them. We decided to play a game called cards against humanity. I had never played it before, it is basically like apples to apples but the more morbid version. It was hilarious to play and it was great to meet new people through that game.



Later on throughout the night they decided on dog sledding and fireworks in the backyard. Her husband Ron had made a dog sled by taking a folding chair and welding it to a pair of skis. The horsepower was her two great danes that were huge it was insane. All the kids took turns going down the ally way with the sled it was so fun to see. Afterwards we had fireworks in the backyward and although they were illegal they were so much fun. They had all different kinds, sparklers, star fireworks etc. It was gorgeous to watch and see them so up close. 

After the fireworks we decided to go back home but it was awesome to have that experience with my coworker. I really thank her for inviting us and having such a great time. She was truly a great host, Between the games, the drinks, the dancing, the fireworks and the dogsledding it was one of the best new years I ever had!
