2021 came in like a lamb here at Casa de Haggis. As a family, we were pretty well scattered. Dennis was in Virginia. Paige was in Phoenix, ringing in the new year with her friends, and, of course, forgetting to take a single picture. Summer was holed up with her best friend, Alex, who was here visiting from Texas, and I was bundled up in warm fuzzies on the couch. Den and I facetimed at midnight his time and then I went to bed. HA!
So fancy!
Our poor Lilo is terrified of fireworks, so we spent some time in a blanket fort
New Year's Day was equally quiet. Summer and Alex went up the mountain to take some pics. And, of course, we had our blackeyed peas to ward off the last remnants of the train wreck that was 2020.
This is my go-to way to make black-eyed peas and it is AH-MAY-ZING. You can find the recipe here.
Seriously, I can not handle how beautiful these girls are! They could not be more different, but they are the BEST of friends. We were so happy to have Alex with us for a few days.
We were really fortunate to enjoy such beautiful weather here in Tucson. Poor Dennis has not been so lucky back east. The weather there has been wet, and windy, and cold, and generally gross. When I asked him to send me any pics he's taken since NYE, this is what I got! He's having to wear his big waterproof hunting boots to go back and forth to his truck!
Life will be getting a little more exciting around here in the next week. Summer goes back to school and my mom is coming for a visit. And later this month, stay tuned for another crazy twist!
