2024!

We are looking forward to this new year. Not much of a point in trying to summarize what happened in 2023 as it was a crazy year. We got so much done. Hopefully 2024 can be a bit more stable and enjoyable. There were great moments in 2023 but also a lot of stress and hard work. 

The new years celebration and the children's museum was a lot of fun. After that we went to a laser light snow at the ore dock. It was really cool especially with some snowflakes sparkling in the lights. On the first of January, Naomi went to the ER to have her hernia looked into and thankfully it looks to be not a big issue. 

Tuesday was back to work for Naomi and Wednesday was back to school for the girls. Abigail made another mini table in the workshop while I was putting together the dust collection system. Amélie joined in too and made some chairs. It was fun!

On Thursday Naomi had an indigenous foods cooking workshop at the coop and she really enjoyed that. On Friday my parents came up, we went out to lunch, and had a nice dinner together with some duck eggs from our neighbor. Yesterday it snowed, so the girls played outside for most of the day and then we went to a hockey game. NMU beat their rivals, MTU, 7-2. It was a lot of fun. The same neighbor who gave the generous Christmas presents and the duck eggs bought us tickets, so next weekend we got them tickets to the basketball game and we will all go together again. 

Fun at the children's museum.

Good way to start the new year!
