First event of January was "Sibling Fun Day". The boys drove down to Provo to thrift-mostly for records, go to dinner, and take a spin at the indoor racetrack.
Darin has been tinkering & making, creating things I don't understand very well, but if your kid is studying Sound Engineering apparently Darin is a big resource.
Took a weekend trip to Scofield with some dear friends. Hiked in, sled, hiked, ate killer food and had a book exchange. Pure bliss.
We still call ourselves the Hottie Hikers even though we hardly ever get together to hike anymore. Luckily Marco Polo has kept us talking even though school and new jobs have interrupted our adventures.
Centerville delivered with the sunsets. Still desperate to get some good snow dumplings. The weather is delightful but it's hard to fully enjoy when the whole state is in a drought. Summer may be dicey.
One benefit of the too-warm temps is that I did some gardening last week and found the key I had lost 4 months ago! So happy I found it and it works.
Byron and I toured U of U and he seems pretty settled with his decision to go there. He is powering through Senior year: working in school, working at his job, hanging out with friends as much as possible and getting sick every other weekend because of it.
Soren is now working on Footloose for Centerpoint Academy and Little Women for Viewmont. Just this weekend he found out he got into Fiddler on the Roof, so he will add that to his schedule, along with school work and Drivers Ed.
Miriam is interviewing, and shadowing, and volunteering trying to figure out her next move toward her future. She'll graduate in May, and still works full time as a Pharmacy tech.
I have been subbing 2-3 days per week, working once a week and Mikey's Place, while looking into other jobs. It would be nice to have something that brings $ in for the summer. Still volunteering as VP over Membership of the PTSA. Currently helping to raise $ and plan the Senior Party.
Book read in January:
Hamnet - watched the movie with Darin on Valentines Day. LOVED them both!
