Punxsutawney Phil was spot on this year. We have no idea what the weather will bring living in Texas, but one thing is for sure, we are well into Spring and jackets are still out. Just when you think it's shorts weather ... BAM ... think again! It looks like we will be heating the pool to swim through April and possibly into May. Coming off of the holidays, January started off with a few more pounds around the waste 😂. Now it's April and progress is making way with Lent under foot. It's always a helpful nudge needed to stay on track after the new year and refocus our eyes on the way of the cross.
Our Christmas gift from Grandma, our Aussiedoodle named Nashville, made his way to us at the end of January. We couldn't be more smitten! He is adorable, snuggly, full of energy, and has a fun loving spirit. He has kept us busier than we could've imagined since the day he arrived. He is now 5 months old and weighs 8 pounds.
Dublyn danced ballet from January-March but decided her passion was in gymnastics where she attends class twice a week.
Wrigley took a gander at a Winter Basketball League in February. He did really well and learned a lot about the game. I think he would enjoy playing again in the future.
Somewhere in the timeline we muddled through stomach bugs and a nasty fever virus that lasted most of March; but once we made it through, we didn't waste any time and jumped right into Spring soccer.
Now it's the beginning of April and we have added golf into the mix of sports. Our weekends are busy but we love watching the kids in their elements. Our children are very gifted athletically for which Chad and I are super grateful. It is fun to watch them compete and gain new skills.
Other news: Chad's mom passed away a week shy of her 75th birthday. It was a long time coming as she spent the last 20+ years in poor health after suffering several debilitating strokes. While it is always sad when a loved one leaves us, we are at the same time appreciative that her earthly suffering has ended. May her soul, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
I will post some of 2022 pictures soon as Easter is only a week away!
