Happy New Year from the Holladays! We had a great week to usher in the new year of 2026. On Sunday 6 kids were still sick, but on Monday only 1 was. We spent the week playing the piano, celebrating Tilly’s half birthday, reading outloud, cooking, eating, playing games, doing puzzles, and working outside. It was amazing! We also had several hours a day to get our own work done (especially me and Kylie who work online) and several nights we watched a movie. Combined with the week before, it was the most perfect Christmas vacation ever. I love my 3 college girls and Lori being here!

Saturday: 10 minute photo shoot
Saturday the kids did this thing where they set a timer for 10 minutes and then run around the house and yard doing a photo shoot. Everyone jumps into a cool pose or tries to find something neat to do. Here are some of the pictures from it.
Our new year is off to a great start. I hope yours is too. Happy New Year from the Holladays!
