We finally got some snow!!
Only a little bit and it was super cold, but at least we got to play in it for a few minutes and make a snowball, so the kids are happy!
Last weekend I had a birthday party, Monday was my REAL birthday I turned 47 when #47 became president, I think that’s pretty cool!!
In early december we started going to a different church and right away felt at home and friended another family with 4 kids and one of them is a 19yo boy, who really hit it off with Solveig (and Bjorn) he’s SO sweet!! Nothing official between the two, but us moms can see “it” LOL, he would be her first “Boyfriend” so we’ll see…..
For lunch after church, Bjorn brought over a ribeye steak and cooked it JUST for me as a birthday gift!
Monday Anja got a purple belt in taekwondo, so now since Sonja is also doing it, it means I have to sit there for 2 hrs!- not really looking forward to that, because Sonja is in the younger belt group and Anja is in the sparring class and higher belt group, we’ll see how it works out, I might try Friday nights/afternoons instead….anyways, of course we’re proud of her KICKING SOME BUTT- we always say that to her and she doesn’t like it….
I also started taking a marketing class at the local community college, it’s VERY interesting and about AI and chatGPT as well, something I frown upon but can now see the benefit of it. It’s a 6 week class and I’ve done 2 already.

Happy Be-lated Birthday. Sounds like 47 is going to be a very special year. Great way to celebrate the day, but I think you deserve a longer celebration. Not sure if I ever shared my sister’s theory, she came up with when she turned 50: If a toddler gets a day to celebrate their lst birthday and someone who turns 100 takes a year to celebrate theirs, it seems we really should be celebrating Birthday windows and not Birthday days. My sister took six months to celebrate her 50th, filling it with a few getaways, plenty of lunches, and time spent doing what she wanted to do. Your projects look great, but I really love your EPP with the fussy cut gnomes.
