It's been quite an eventful month! The kids were out of school for three weeks, so we stayed busy. They did a great job sticking to a daily schedule doing chores, reading, piano practice and fun activities. It has been a wet month. Lots of snow and rain. Because of the weather we have spent a lot of time in doors. I think we are ready for Spring!
My former stepmom passed away this month. And there have been a lot of other deaths in the neighborhood and community. My aunt Janet had a stroke and was airlifted to a hospital. It has been quite the month for sure!

Some of the games we played on New Years Eve.
Starting our New Years Eve party.
This game was a lot of fun!
This game however was very interesting!
Spin the arrow, and it lands on a nasty jellybean flavor, such as booger, vomit, rotten fish, grass clippings, etc. There are also yummy jellybeans with the same colors. So you reach for the color and hope it's a yummy one and not the nasty flavor. What a surprise!
Fireworks in the driveway. We actually stay up until midnight

My former stepmom Marlies died last week. I made this pencil sketch for her sons.
I haven't seen her or her sons in 10 years. I wrapped the pictures and delivered them. No one was home, but I left them on their porch.
