We came home and had a yummy dinner made by dad and blondies with ice cream. Happy Birthday to my sweet young man. Can't believe its been 12 years already. Going by way too fast.
So my goal of writing more often this year has not happened as regularly as I had wanted. There are so many things that I have missed that I am going to play catchup for a few posts.
So from October to February Issabelle was participating in ice skating lessons and then at the very end they had a performance. She has worked really hard this year and was asked to be in the opening show as well as her regular class. It was kind of a big deal. She has really taken to the sport and would want to go on extra days to just practice by herself. I am very happy for her that she as found something that she really enjoys, although she does do several thigs already. We had fun watching her preform and are proud of her.
The first quarter of 2025 has already past and the jokes on me. I have set several goals for myself and have had to readjust as I am finding they may not all be realistic ones. The winter has seem to fly by as always these days. Life just keeps on going and I need to figure out how to keep up.
I worked a lot at the mountain, especially during the month of February. It was great and the kids got lots of days on the mountain just not with me as much as I would have liked. Harkin turned 12 which was a delightful day. William came home for a week long visit, but worked every day so we really did not see much of him. Landon is still in Spain but getting ready to come home. 6 weeks and he will be back in the states. Our plan of visiting him didn't quite pan out.
I started working at an afterschool program twice a week. I enjoy it because I get to plan my own classes and the kids are pretty good, but still hard not being home with my kids. Just till the end of the school year and then we'll see what's next.
I am still selling items on eBay and Esty. That's going ok. A few things a week it seems, so making a little money and getting rid of stuff.
We have completed three puzzles so far: one a month, so I'm keeping up with that goal for now.
We had family visits all in one week. Izzy participated in Junior Ski Patrol day at Jay which was lots of fun.
My hope is to write and record our days more often. I miss writing and love looking back on our days as time goes by.
There was some skiing over the weekend which was pretty awesome, so they tell me...
Lots of baking was done last week. Shortbread and two batches of muffins which then got eaten by our little black ninja. She ate 14 muffins off the counter. No one was too happy with her. Nor was her tummy the next day. And I got to clean up the throw up. Yay!
I'm still trying to get back into this blogging thing again as it is such a great memory of our days.
Also need to work on taking more pictures!
Once the weather warmed a little by late afternoon I rallied my girl and dogs and did our daily walk together. It was warmer than I thought just very windy. I am glad we are sticking to it. The dogs are much happier and its good for me and Izz.
Still in awe that it is 2025. I am not sure where 2024 went 😕
