Where did February go? The time has flown by and now we're heading into March! We had company for two weeks in February as Ehren's Mom Elaine came to visit. We kept her busy following the kids' activities...not sure how much of a "holiday" it was but it was time away from home! We enjoyed our time and her homemade perogies, buns and cabbage rolls. We took her to Estes Park and hiking at Chautauqua and also enjoyed a family Valentine's dinner at an authentic mexican restaurant in town. We all ate well and they had Mexican dancers using the stage most of the time we were there. It was a fun night and all three of our kids were dancing to the music. The weather was nice while Elaine was here but got even better after she left (sorry Elaine!). We've had such a nice winter and the grass is even turning green in some areas. Of course, we'll probably get hit with huge snow storms in April but hey, we need the moisture!
Janelle spent a couple mornings volunteering in Emily's classroom this month. It was quite interesting to see how things are "now" vs how they used to be! The technology is amazing from web cam announcements and interactive white boards to having the teachers on surround-sound microphones!! Wow, yes it has changed. Emily was glad to have her Mom in class and one of the days was extra special as it was a Valentine's Day party!
Coming up we're getting ready for a couple birthdays. Both girls are quite excited. We've got every weekend in March booked with parties and ski trips. Before we know it it'll be Easter and we'll be celebrating Evan's second birthday!
