Happy New Year

No pictures just yet. I am still trying to catch up. The kids go back to school tomorrow unfortunately. I always have big plans that never come to fruition. We will just have to carry some of the fun over into this next year. We spent Christmas in Montana mostly with the Ostler side as this is the last Christmas with the ranch. Alan and Nathan and families will be moving to Wyoming this spring/summer. Jennie will stay and keep a few acres. We did manage a quick trip into Butte to drop off presents. Believe it or not, but my side of the family is more mobile or at least come to visit more often so, though it was disappointing in terms of my visit with my family, I was consoled with knowing I get to visit more in the future. Don is just out of luck.

We rang the new year in by ourselves watching movies. Linay didn't make it. Ainsley did, but was angry we didn't watch ice skating instead of the ball dropping. Emma was with her friend just a few houses away playing board games and barbies.

Now we are back to getting in our school routine. Maybe now I can remember to send the kids to piano.
