NYE 2018

 On Saturday, Dec. 29 my family got to the airport bright and early.  We boarded our plane, got comfortable and then learned the flight was cancelled due to a maintenance issue with the plane.  I get that it's better to be safe than sorry but we were scrambling to find another flight out that would still get us to Texas well before New Years Eve.  Thankfully we got a flight out the morning of Dec. 30.  We lost a day but we were all just happy to be together to ring in another year together, as we've always done.
 On Dec. 31 the three older kids went to Six Flags.  The weather was beautiful but sadly the park was packed.  So packed that they only rode one or two rides and came home.


 It was 60 on Dec. 31.  Nick went bare chested, of course.  I love this picture of Sieb and Nick.
 On NYE Sieb started doing what he does best - cooking!  He made twice baked potatoes, Italian stuffed flank steak and meatloaf packed in an onion (Curt's pick).  The food was delicious and the company was even better!  We sure shared a lot of laughs around that island on NYE.


 I'm not sure what Mike and Nick are laughing about in this picture but they were cracking up.
 About 9pm on NYE these ya-hoos took the "polar plunge."  It was freezing, but they did it.




 Faith and Curt are home in IL for the week.  They are spending some much needed time with friends.
Until next time Ausili's!  We sure loved our super quick trip.  As always, it felt just like old times.
