New adventures

It really is happening, Josh is now a full-time student at Plattsburgh State. It all came together in a swirl of reality when we bought his books, got his ID, registered the vehicles, and found his classrooms yesterday. The kids enjoyed seeing where Daddy will be when he's "at school" and were troopers as we hiked across campus a few times. It was a good trip and I think it helped calm his nerves, getting a feel for campus and taking care of all the tedious bits (besides the actual learning part ofcourse). It will be a big change from little ol' North Country, but he's ready.

In the calm before the homework, we've been spoiling ourselves a bit. Last weekend the "kids" came over for "Sibling Night" and we had a blast. They are amazing people and a lot of fun to be with. On Tuesday, we left Lennon with the Grandparents and took off skiing for the day. It was such a beautiful day, being mid-week the trails were empty, and it started snowing big beautiful flakes. The perfect winter wonderland. After the kids went to bed last night we enjoyed a peaceful dinner with some champagn (peaceful dinners are always a treat). Today I think we'll let Dad take it easy, or as easy as he can with us in the house.
