The little guy tried snowboarding this winter, and of course he loves it!! No surprise there, he also loves skateboarding and they are similar. Second grade has been good for him too! Had the fall conference and learned some good new things about my boy!! He continues to thrive in school.
I also started school. It was huge for me to step out of my comfort zone and actually go to school. It was even harder for me to stand up in front of 30 people and give an oral report, but I did it and I am glad I did!! I am taking two classes starting January 9.
My husband continues to do well at work. He is active with the boy scouts, and I volunteered to be popcorn mom next year! I'm sure he'll help me. Hubby and the boy are still trying to go up north ice fishing at his brothers house, but, surprisingly, it's not been a cold even winter yet to get any safe ice. Maybe in January or February.
My daughter is doing well, though I wish she were closer. She comes to visit when she can though.
My mom continues to do well too. She is getting older and stairs are a bit hard for her with her knees, but she's doing well. I continue to go at least twice a month to clean her house. Sometimes we run errands too. We always go out to eat lunch on cleaning days.
As I reflect back on 2011, it's really been a good year for us. We are all healthy and well. Trying new things and just going on with life. I think of friends from my past, as I always do, and wonder how they are doing. Hoping all is well with them and their families.
I hope 2012 is good for all of us!! Enjoy the new year!!
