I've fallen off the blogging bandwagon yet again ... but here I am pulling myself back on. To ease myself back in, I'll share a few of the exciting things that have happened recently (or are happening soon!):

• Christmas at home in Saskatchewan. I had a wonderful 10 days at home ... chock full of good times with family and friends. Got lots of quality sibling and cousin time in, and made good use of the backyard rink with lots of friends.

• Sister Alicia starting the new year off right by coming to live with me in BC. She's loving the mild weather, and lounging around my house during the day. Hopefully a job will work out for her soon! I'm enjoying having company around ... and having someone around to go on adventures with!

• Sweet Logan Matthew Willard being welcomed into this world on January 4th by his parents, and my good friends, Ben & Elizabeth. He looks so sweet ... and I love him so much already! I'm so excited about getting to meet him when I make a trip to Ontario later on this year!

• Trip into Vancouver this weekend to meet up with Elise! I haven't seen Elise in nearly a year, and I can't wait to see her again! I miss having her around Merritt - but am glad that she is still close enough that we can meet up every once in awhile (although not nearly frequently enough!).
