大晦日 New Year's Eve

今日は大晦日。2016年最後の日でした。
Today was New Year's Eve, the last day of the year 2016.

午前中家族みんなでショッピングに出かけて，あとは家でそれぞれのんびり。
In the morning, we went shopping. For the rest of the day, we just stayed home and did whatever.

午後裏庭で雪だるまを作ろうと思ったけれど雪がサラサラすぎて作れず。何もしないんじゃつまらないのでスノーエンジェル👼をやりました。我が家の男子はやりたがらず。臆病者め～。でも手袋してなかったから手が凍り付くようにめっちゃくちゃ寒くて痛かった！
In the afternoon, we went to the backyard to make a snowman, but it was powder snow that we couldn't make one. So, I did snow angel. William and Brian didn't want to do it. They were wimp! Actually they were smart not to do that because it was literally freezing and I got super cold especially my hands because I didn't have my gloves on. My hands were too cold that they hurt!

そして今年最後の夕飯は年越しそば。やっぱりこれを食べないと年は越せないね。天ぷらめんどうくさいけどね。おいしかった～。
And for the last meal for the year, we had Toshikoshi soba (Year-crossing noodles). Got to have this to welcome a new year.

今年一年何かとばたばたしていたけれど，家族みんな健康で無事に一年を過ごすことができて感謝。
I think over all it was a great year. I'm grateful that everyone in our family stayed healthy (except some cold and stuff) and nothing bad really happened.
