Another long spell

Well, mom has been having a rough time at work. A few days after the last update, she had the worst ever experience at work, and not something she wants to put in a blog, but had her struggling with some pretty down days. She sort of took a break from anything unnecessary, and then focused on getting out of town with all of us. Doing much better after a camping trip and the company of good friends and lots of chocolate and wine. So now she can get back to helping me with the blog.

We have actually been quite busy this last month....

Our old dog mishka (13.5 years and counting) got her teeth cleaned and put on pain meds for her arthritis, and now is acting like a spry 10yr old dog! Both mishka and courtney got shaved last week for the summer - will have to add those pics later.

I had my first piano recital and did very well, loved performing in front of everyone. Not one iota of my parents' shyness or performance anxiety. I also had my preschool graduation ceremony and my orientation to KG.

Zac and i started swim lessons once a week. I am learning strokes and he is getting the hang of swimming. He can jump off the side and swim back to the edge. He could go farther if he stayed calm, but he has some of that fear of performance that i was lucky enough to evade.

We went camping in the sand dunes nat. park. SO fun - although it was cold - snowed one day in short bursts. The last day warmed up and on our way home we stopped at a hotsprings - it was so relaxing and fun....

Enjoy the pics
