It is next year already... I'm not ready for it, though.
Here's some of the things we're looking at doing this coming year:
- Visit the zoo at least twice
- Paint the kitchen (this was on last year's list, too...)
- Fix some other house-related stuff
- Visit California
- Swim classes for the kids
- Join an additional club?
Other than that, it's been pretty quiet. We've cleaned up all our Christmas stuff, and the husband is taking the tree to be recycled today.
The kids got some money for Christmas, so they've bought some things for themselves; Oz bought himself some Imaginext toys, including a big yeti toy, a sleigh thing, and a snake monster. Corwin's gotten himself some books, and a game called The Magic Labyrinth. Saffron so far hasn't gotten herself anything, though between Christmas and her birthday, she's got plenty of money to spend...
Yesterday, we headed to the
grand opening of our new local library. It's up here in the Smokey Point area, just about a 5-10 minute drive away, compared to 20-30 minutes to the Marysville library. While it's much,
much smaller than the Marysville library, it's still decently sized and very conveniently located. We've already come home with a good assortment of books. :P
