We were absolutely thrilled to welcome in the new year. 2017 was not our favorite, so we had high hopes for 2018. We spent the New Year with our bowling group(that doesn’t bowl anymore). Jeff and Barb made a great dinner and we played games till midnight.
Sof stayed with Em and they sent me snapchats.
On January 2 Mark’s dad passed away. It was time, he had suffered for long enough. He had no quality of life for at least a year before, and we were thankful it wasn’t prolonged. It was still very sad and certainly a life to be celebrated. We had a packed visitation, and several friends stuck around to grab drinks and apps afterwards.
We had a nice service and an awesome luncheon after. Funerals are sad, but also a reason to reconnect with people you haven’t seen. We really truly enjoyed that luncheon and so did everyone else!
Mark started a new job right after. It’s an exciting and nerve-racking thing. This year “new year” took on a whole new level of new! We’re ready for it though!
