Where does the time go!

I feel like I'm loosing big chunks of time. I can't believe it has be so long since my last post. I'm overwhelmed by the idea of trying to tell all the stories I should have posted in the last few weeks. I'll just hit the highlights.
I got a year older. Happy 33 to me. We celebrated with a weekend trip to Wray where my Grandma Courtney made two (TWO!!!) of my favorite desserts, angel food cake and coconut cream pie. What a delicious overindulgence.
I finally finished the assessment portfolio assignment for my Early Childhood Education lab class. It was a huge, time consuming, project. I am hugely grateful to Joel, Elaine and Gary for watching Jace while I spent hours and hours finishing. What a relief to turn it in. I'm proud to say I got and A. Now, I have to figure out what to do next.
Somewhere in the weeks that I was finishing homework, Spring arrived. The crab apple trees that I affectionately call, the pink trees, are in full bloom. They didn't bloom last year because of a badly timed frost. This year they are amazing.
We got a new refrigerator! I am so excited by this addition to our kitchen. I don't have to mop super chilled water out of the bottom of the fridge every two days. I don't have to throw away frozen vegetables. I have more fridge space and smaller energy bills. It is great. It makes the rest of the kitchen look like a dump. I guess it will only be the beginning of our much needed home improvements.
That's what's been happening around here. As far as Jace updates go, there are new stories everyday. I'll try to do better on posting them.
