I guess I will start with our big news... Mick quit his job on February 23rd. This wasn't something that just came about one day. We had discussed it for a while and he had put a lot of preparation into him turning in his resignation. It is amazing how things have went since and we feel truly blessed to have friends and family around us for encouragement during this time! We have no doubt that we made the right decision.
I threw Mick a birthday party on Feb. 28th. His parents drove all the way up to suprise him and stay the weekend. It was a nice suprise! We had a great time visiting with everyone who came out for the party. The guys did some shooting and ended up getting the potato gun out later that night. It was a lot of fun!
The guys from Mick's former office put together a going away party for him and Chris (Chris quit too). They had it at Frankie's Too in Falcon. It was really nice. They presented each of them with a John Deere hat with a phrase on the back and a plaque. Something that is a tradition around their office. Mick's hat had Best in the World, something he said every day to his guys. When he went to give his speech he actually got choked up. He had a great group of people he worked with and they will be missed.
The day after that I met my sister Kim in Blackhawk for a girl's night away. We had a lot of fun. Free margaritas and winning money! Although I ended up spending what I won... but oh well. I did go home with most of the money that I took.. well until I stopped by Kohl's on the way home! But hey, at least I had something to show for it!!
This past Friday me and the boys drove up to stay a few days with Kim and her family. We had a great visit. The weather was really warm, so the kids were able to play outside. We left there on Sunday and drove to Breckenridge and have been here since. We have went sledding almost every day and have watched several movies. We are having a wonderful time. It has snowed every day that we have been here and there is a 90% chance of snow tomorrow! I also heard on the radio that we are under a winter storm warning till 6 a.m. Friday morning. Sounds like we won't be going anywhere tomorrow.
I am dreading heading back to the "real world" this weekend. Dylan has soccer practice starting on Monday and Kristian's will be on Tuesday's and Thursday's. Dylan's first game is next Saturday!! And so it begins. But summer time is just around the bend....
Hope all is well with all of you. Until next time...
There you go Tanya!!! :) I blogged!! Now back to my life of Leisure! lol!!!
