New Year's Resolution?

Oh my goodness.   I haven't posted since March 2013.  It's now JANUARY 2014!  Eek!  #fail. Wait, a hashtag doesn't do anything unless I use it in Twitter?  Golly, there's a revelation...

How am I supposed to cover 9 months in one post? Guess I'll gloss over it, then backtrack in more detail?

I'm SOOO glad my last post was the one on skiing.  Nathan and I agree it was the best day of our whole almost 10 year marriage.  We are actually taking them skiing again next weekend and the boys want to go on the big hills, not just the bunny hills. 

Cash finished out the summer at Andreas and started school in the fall!  I'll do another post on that all by itself. Let's just say he is excelling and getting smarter and bigger than ever!  At his 5 year check up I asked his doctor about his excessive intake of food and she noted that he grew 7 inches over the last year!  No wonder we can barely keep him in clothes and shoes.  On the bright side, Declan is getting some barely-used hand-me-downs.

Declan is in his final year at Andreas.  He will start pre-school next fall, although we aren't sure where yet since he's not old enough for Young Fives. Deck is also growinggrowinggrowing... so handsome and as smart as his brother.  If only he would take to being fully potty-trained.  It's our only complaint of our very independent child. He's almost 4 years old and just.won't.go.in.the.potty.

Nathan was on the cusp of starting his own business as he was fed up at Moss. Right before he quit, he was aggressively pursued at Custer.  When he asked them how they heard of him, they said, "Oh everyone knows who you are."  HUH?  He was thrilled to receive a very lucrative offer, and off he went.... and loves it! He's much happier and enjoying new challenges (and mama's enjoying the new pay that comes with it!).

As for me, I have been at my current role at Amway about 9 months. Although I enjoy it, my boss keeps talking about moving me out of my current role as I am being "wasted" in this one.  A great compliment, but I'll stick it out awhile longer.  I also decided to go back to school (eek!) for my Master's in Management. It will take several years, but Amway is footing most of the deal, so I didn't want to waste this opportunity.  So far I have two classes down, and 11 to go.  A's in both of them, but I might break that streak with my next class: Managerial Economics.

So that's that for now.  I'm going to try (this is the New Year's Resolution part) for a blog post every other week.  Or at least 26 by the end of the year.
