January 2018 Update
We came back from Minnesota and we all got sick. Some kind of cold passed through us all, a wonderful gift that we seem to get every year. About the second week of January, Molly and Hattie took turns having fevers for 8 days straight. It was a long and quiet week for me! I got so much work done while the sick girls were vegged out on the couch watching cartoons. A silver lining, perhaps? Charlie started Rec district basketball and had practices on Monday evenings and games on Saturday mornings. He is loving it! His coach is an actual coach who is teaching them drills and technique and stuff. She's legit but makes it fun for the kids. Charlie's team is the Cardinals this year. Mid-January, I went on a Young Life leader retreat for one night up at Frontier Ranch. It was refreshing time and Matt and the kids found plenty to do while I was gone. The next weekend also brought me out of town for a YoungLives summit in Littleton so Matt took the kids to Westcliffe to go ice fishing. They came home with three trout and had a blast! I came home that night to my aunt and uncle who were passing through on their way to Arizona. They stayed two nights with us and we had a really, really great time together. Lots of games, lots of conversation, some games of beanbags outside, and more conversation. Thanks for taking the time to stay with us, Ronny and Terri! :)

And with that, we quickly turned the calendar to February!
