So I have not been good at posting (but what else is new?) and it has been 4 months since I posted. You would think in 4 months there would be interesting amazing things that would have occurred. But, life has been very normal for the last few months, and we are not complaining at all!
Since the last post
- Nettie turned 7
- The holidays came and went
- Tiffany finished 2 classes for her Masters and is working on a third
- We are in the midst of girl scout cookie sales
- We spent a fun super bowl weekend in the mountains with Ben's family
Overall, the time has been fun. Nettie skied for the first time this year and loved it, so there will be skiing in the future for the girl. John wanted to try it, but we were asked to get off the magic carpet since we didn't have a lift ticket (whoops) and so he got hot chocolate instead. He can try next year, but my vote is ski school and maybe after 8 years I can get my sorry self back on skis:)

The holidays were fun, and busy as usual. Lots of time with family and enjoying a break of reality. The kids enjoyed Christmas and were very excited for Santa to come.
Going back to school has been an experience. It is amazing how much easier writing a paper is with the internet. The library is on the internet, my classes are on the internet, and a plethora of information (although I clearly check the sources) is available. I sound like an old person, but it is ODD not going too the library and hunting down a book, but I will take it. There are sacrifices, Ben is taking on a lot around the house, I don't see friends as much (if at all) as I did before. I am enjoying the experience, but looking forward to taking a break over the summer and finishing when John finishes first grade. I couldn't get through this without my wonderful husband who has been a great support.
