Jan 2023

Happy New Year! Rang in the new year with pouring rain, which to me is a perfect symbol of transitioning into a new year! Fresh and with so much opportunity. 
Spent New Years with the Bischof’s, our tradition. 

Also had a fun road trip with cousins to Palm Springs, and the big event…

We went to Big Bear for a long weekend getaway to honor Todd on his Birthday weekend. He would have been 54…and is missed so much. We had two full days of snow failing and lots of sledding. We all had so much fun! We overcame being locked out of the cabin for two hours, with the kids in the jacuzzi and Summer and I huddled together. Thankfully I had my phone to call for rescue:) we overcame putting on snow chains while it was snowing, and one of us getting stuck and having to be towed out of the canyon. But we did it, we overcame all of it and are stronger for it. Hopefully we modeled the behavior to our kids of never giving up, staying calm and making the best out of the crazy challenges. We laughed a lot and will remember this trip as being the best time ever! 

Here are the photo recaps. Of course in a crazy order because uploading the pics from my phone.
