Winter can get rather slow. It feels a lot like this:

We have been a bit busy. The older kids are all playing basketball. Many of us have gotten various illnesses. We did make some snowmen and snow forts, and we’ve gone sledding when there’s been snow. We’ve been working on a few house projects: updating the banister and adding a hall. And often not doing all that much, and that’s fine. Sometimes the highlight of the week is trying out cookies from Costco, and nothing is wrong with that.
