What a great New Years tribute! And hilarious as usual. I wish I could be half as creative. Thanks for including us.

Lol glad you enjoyed and this is the toned down version for the public! We are all creative in different ways, mine seems to be fueled by a constant supply of cookies and coffee.

#11 should be hubby’s resolution, that’s one of Justin’s official jobs! I get the “you have chocolate on your chin” warning on the regular 🙂
I agree wholeheartedly with #17, and I’m wearing yesterday’s clothes to prove that I’m serious about it.
Oh, and definitely yes to #20! 😉
Thanks for always bringing the humor, and here’s to more in 2018!
