Month: February 2016

The final catch up is about….skating but this time Missy E. She has done two skating competitions this year and had fun doing it (as you can see from the photos below).

Missy K’s 11th Gotchaversary & Forever Family:

It is hard to believe that 11 years ago we were walking around China with a wee mite in a snuggie trying to figure out this parent thing for the very first time.  Now look at her, so tall and making us so proud.  Just love her to bits.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cooking with Missy E:

She is really starting to enjoy working in the kitchen and I love having a side kick.

 

 

We had a lot of fun at Chinese New Year.  It is now the Year of the Monkey — Katrine’s Year and she is super excited about it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We hope that all of you welcomed in the Year of the Monkey surrounded by the love of family and friends.

We are baaaaaack!  2016 got off to an interesting start; a lot of ups and downs.  We welcomed in the new year at my parents and it was wonderful.  Family and snow.  It was the most snow we have had this winter.  The girls managed to get in some snowman and fort building as well as sledding.  Of course, we came home and the first round of illness struck.  To make it worse, Katrine hurt her knee when landing a jump.  She has spent the last two months in physio and she ended up missing two skating competitions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It has been really hard on her because she has not only been in physio but also had to sit out/greatly reduce the amount of skating.  Skating is her soul.  She is getting back into it now so is beginning to feel better.  Yeah.  In just a little while she may even be able to get back to off ice.
