It's been a while!!
Quick note to try to catch up on my blog... maybe I should just let it go but I realize there are still a "few" people who check on here every once in a while. And, I learned a couple of days ago that my blog was featured on a jewelry making website. So, maybe I should post something at least.
Lets see...
Over the past few months, we've had baseball season (both Aidan and Holden), Golf (Aidan), and Football season (Aidan) which is almost over. The team is in the playoffs right now. Next Saturday will be the semi-finals, and then the finals here in Farmington the week after. Go BRONCOS!
We went to San Diego again for Spring Break~ my that's forever ago. We had an awesome time, and some great friends of ours went as well. We shared and incredible beach house that everyone loved! Can't remember any other major vacations over the past few months though...
David started a different job. That's been a lot more time consuming for him, which leaves us at home without him much more. He hasn't been traveling as much as he was before, but it's still so tough not having him home as much. He wanted a challenge, and he definitely got it!
Holden turned 5 in April.
Back to school brought the first day of Kindergarten and the first day of Middle School. UGH! That was tough for me. Can't believe I have a middle school child.
Aidan turned 11 in September.
I'm still working half-time. Job-sharing with a great lady. But, I am struggling to get things accomplished since going back to work.
The usual mix of sickness for everyone, especially lately. Fall always seems to bring illness around here. If it's not sinus infection, its strep throat, and recently the flu made it's rounds in our house~ just recovering from it here.
And, through it all there's been jewelry making. Lots of jewelry making! It's an ever evolving process, and I am learning throughout it. I've even begun working more with gold recently, which is fun! Here is a custom order that I made a couple of months ago for a mother's ring set with ruby, aquamarine, topaz, and white gold
It was a challenge working with white gold, but I love the way that these rings turned out! The couple who I made them for love them as well~ which makes me so happy!
Here is a picture of David and the boys taken this summer
What a beautiful family I have!
