Time has moved fast, time has moved slow these last few months. There were a few more snow storms since the last post, Easter came (Poor Ethan was sick as a dog but we dragged his ass along. He slept the entire day after the egg hunt.) We all drove down for a weekend at Auntie's house. Jason arranged for us to all go ax throwing! Quite an experience. Fiona had an awards banquet and art opening for her gold and silver key winning art pieces. Fiona had her prom! She was a stunner. Jacob looked great too... We even squeezed in an overnight in North Conway and a hike to Arathusa falls!
Then it happened. Scott got laid off. Bit of a surprise to say the least, but not necessarily bad news. Four weeks of job offers streaming in. Some that were fabulous options, others that were OK but not very exciting...but one that had potential to be amazing...this is the one he landed! As a family we have weathered uncertainty before, and we did it again by supporting each other (especially Scott). The kids have been so mature through it all. Never complaining as we discussed various scenarios. We are excited to embark on a new adventure this summer.
