It's Been A While

Today I was notified that I still have blog readers out there and I should probably put out an update for some/all of you.

Dan and I are still happily married and living in Ridgefield with the kids. We have two dogs (Scooby and Bella), two cats (AJ and Fonzie) and four chickens. We are chicken sitting for a friend so right now we have 21 chickens so it's definitely a full house. We continue to work on the yard and make improvements too.

Dan is still working at BNSF as the Portland Yard Inspector. He is home every day and works locally.

Liam is a freshman at Ridgefield High School and doing very well. He will be 15 in less than two weeks! He's still playing soccer and his team, the Blazers, have only lost one game this entire season (wish I could say the same for the Seahawks).

Pippa is now four and I would say she's ready for school. She's taking swim lessons on the weekends and although she wouldn't put her face in the water when she started, she's now swimming like a little fish. Of course she has a long way to go but we are proud of her progress.

I'm still working full time at PUD and we are still focusing on paying off our debt. Life is good.
