10 Updates

Wow, didn't realize that it has been a month since I blogged. I decided to give an update on what is going on in a "list" format -- seems more efficient!

1. One of my best friends from high school, actually since 6th grade, got married in January. The wedding was so fun and it was great to catch up with everyone

2. We went skiing with Ann and Brian and Tommy and my parents came too -- we went to Santa Fe and it pretty fun! The girls did really well skiing and mommy did horrible at Black Jack!!

3. Joe and I decided to participate in a Triathlon Sprint this summer -- so we have been figuring out our training programs and it seems like a pretty lofty goal! But, I think we can do it!!

4. Abby is looking for a career job - so that means that we potentially could be loosing her soon -- and that has occupied our thoughts a great deal. We really think she needs to do what is right for her and Cody and that probably means to find a job with a salary and benefits -- but it will be hard to loose her on a daily basis -- I will keep yall posted

5. Work for me is going really great right now, a lot of fun and challenging projects

6. We are in planning mode for our trip to Disney! I think we are going to go in September and we are planning on making it a "BRATS" trip -- with a trip in an RV to the magical land!

7. I am still in this weight loss battle. It seems that I am working so hard on it and I think I am actually gaining weight -- so frustrating

8. The girls start swim class today. They are going to go on Monday's and Wednesday's for February. Elle wants to try out for the swim team in the summer -- so I think this will be a fun thing for her and Emme to do, we will see how it goes

9. Elle added a day of class at CCDC, so now she is going 3 times per week to school. I think that this will be really good for her -- she gets so bored during the day!

10. There really is no place like your own home and your own bed. The travel has been fun -- but there is something about walking in your back door and seeing your home -- it just relaxes you!
