Time Flies

 So clearly my New Years resolution last year lasted about 5 months. Then I neglected the blog again. And so much has happened!

I would love to recap it all but I feel that would take three days so maybe a quick recap? Then I'll possibly go back in and add them later. Social media has pretty much taken care of the whole document every life event and trip for me so I don't feel like the blog is as relevant. BUT in the big scheme of things I want to turn this blog into a book someday, not like a book I'll sell but a life story kind of book I can pass on. But by then maybe books will be irrelevant and everything will be online! 

Anyway! 

Let's see, where did we leave off? Summer 2021? Pandemic still rolling, masking, we all got vaccinated though and breathed a sigh or relief. A lot of people didn't trust the vaccine though and so we kept on pandemicking. New strains and relaxed mandates were a bad combination but less people were dying so we rolled. 

In October last year Todd and I celebrated our 20th anniversary. We went to Panama Jacks resort in Cancun (with the kids). It was amazing! The pictures will tell the story but we ate, we drank, we played. It was incredible. 

I was lucky enough to head back to Cancun in December (same resort) with my book club girls for Michelle's bachlorette. It was so fun!!! 

And then we surprised the kids with a trip to Disney for Christmas. BEST SURPRISE EVER!! We had so much fun and it's a trip we will never forget. 

Around mid-January Todd's dad became very ill and sadly passed away, he had lung cancer and was not doing well and then he got Covid and that's all his body could take. He was 83. We're still handling his estate, he has a house to sell and there's some issues with the neighbor and an easement we have to settle before we can put it on the market. Hopefully we can get a surveyor soon to straighten it out. 

Biggest-ish news is we are starting our home remodel very soon! It's been in the works for almost a year. Planning and making selections is done and we are paying our first draw TOMORROW! Then we will get a schedule and work can begin. I'm so excited! Let's not talk about how the cost has doubled since last year. We're not talking about that. 

Two big trips coming up, Colorado in June and Puerto Vallarta in October. We have always loved to travel and now that the kids are older we are doing all we can!! I've got the next couple of years lined out and we'll be doing some big things!! Stay tuned!
