Springtime

Normally, if the flowers come up in January or the beginning of February I would say that they are confused, and it will usually get cold and snowy later on in the Winter. This time, I think it really is spring. I think this will be a winter with only a handful of nights dipping below freezing and not one single day. Not a trace of snow. Too bad. Nice to start spring a month ahead of schedule though!

Abigail got to go to a birthday party yesterday. Amélie watched a show about competitive cheerleading with us, as that is the direction her acrogym will take if she sticks with it as she gets older. She thought it was pretty interesting. Next weekend the girls will start with their swimming lessons. 100 euro/month until they get their diploma. Probably takes a year and a half. Ouch.

I sealed up the bathroom ceiling with some hardwood this week. It was just open to the outside apart form some thin strips of insulation that were not even secured. Stupid 70s construction. Hopefully those critters don't find another way in!

Spring is here!
