My dear friend Stephanie from Chico came to visit me. It was a surprise for my birthday. A sneaky little plan set up by her and my mom. What a joy it was to sit with a friend from what I fondly call my “old life” and have her experience my “new life” or more […]
Our first real snow that actually stuck around came today! The kids were very excited and played in it for bit. We are not really “playing out in the snow” prepared as far as clothes go but we are working on that. They had fun eating and throwing the snow and Pa even took them […]
