our new years eve was simple and low-key, which is admittedly how I prefer most things lately (I may or may not be turning into a hermit). I started the day off cleaning, organizing, and dejunking our closets. surprisingly, I had taken down all the christmas decorations the night before, which is pretty much unheard of when it comes to me. however, starting the new year off with a clutter-free and clean house sounded like the perfect blank slate to me.
we dropped a box of old home decor items off at the di before heading on over to in n' out for some lunch. after a delicious meal of burgers and fries, we were off to the riverton hospital to meet our new niece.
danny and wendy decided to name their new baby girl olive, which has honestly never even crossed my mind, but I think it's the cutest name ever and they're lucky they got to it before I could. I did learn that another one of their top contenders was a name that kendrick and I are ninety-five percent set on using for our future baby girl, and now I'm living in fear that someone else in my family will use it before we get around to having kids. first world problems, right?
aaaaaanyways, olive is such a little beauty with a head full of dark hair. it's pretty surreal seeing danny and wendy with a little girl, as they've had only boys for the past six years!
(please excuse the necklace, kendrick isn't the best at telling me when something doesn't look good when taking my picture, haha)
kendrick with a baby though... ;)
we headed home after the hospital where we met up with colin and sara. the rest of the night was spent playing games, drinking martinellis, and trying out a delicious new restaurant. it was honestly such a fun night and the perfect low-key new years eve I was looking for. we ended the night with watching the ball drop and some kisses at midnight, obviously.
I'm so excited for what 2016 has in store! I'm already planning our next travel destination... yeah, I don't waste any time.
happy new year!
