Didn't we just celebrate Christmas? How could it already be January 10th of the new year? The month is already flying by. I really wish life could slow down a bit. One of my friends in Arizona has the best new years resolution.
This is what she had to say: I truly love my life although I don't always allow myself to feel the joy of it..........My #1 resolution this year is to feel the joy of loving my life everyday!
I think I am going to try to do the same thing. I feel like our lives just fly by us and we don't take the time to fully enjoy what a wonderful lives we have. I am so very blessed with a great family, wonderful friends and pretty good health. I enjoy seeing my children smile. It brings me so much joy. I love that my son still loves to sit on my lap or cuddle me on the couch. My daughter is so special. She totally loves life and people. She is always happy and truly loves having friends and is so nice to people. (She just needs to work on being nicer to her immediate family :) ) I am so blessed to have them. I love it that my Mother calls me just to tell me she loves me. Ok, so it was because she thought she offended me by getting onto my kids today, but she didn't. I am glad she helps me remind them to behave. She could never offend me. I did enjoy hearing her call and tell me that.
So today I took the kids skiing for the second time this year. We brought along Haiden and Collin the kids cousins. It was Haiden's second time ever boarding and he is such a natural! When we arrived, the wind was blowing and it was so darn cold for being such a sunny day. We made a few runs and then went in for lunch. After lunch the wind quit and it was a beautiful day. Shaylee took off and skied with Collin. Kayson and Haiden stuck with me. They all had so much fun and that little stink Shaylee just gets too brave riding the lift by herself with Collin. It kinda scares me, but she did ok. I got to ride single and met some cute kids. I rode up with this cute little 5 year old and he just happen to be the son of Kirk Eck a guy I grew up with and went to school with my whole life. I skied back to the Patrol lodge with him and there was his Dad. It was good seeing him. I also ran into Jared Larson a good ole' friend. I love that I am blessed to go skiing whenever I want and it is a blast seeing old friends!
So this year is starting out great for us! It's all going to be ok...I just know it!

If it weren't for 'Aunt Sheri', Haiden would still be only dreaming of the day he could go snowboarding. I'm just too whimpy to brave the cold...okay, it's really the ski lift that scares me. Thanks for letting him tag a long. He had a blast.
Mary, you should come visit. I would take you skiing.
Kristen, we are the lucky ones to get to enjoy it with him. I am glad he likes to go with us.
You do have a wonderful family........we love you all and miss you! I hope this year is the best ever!
