Wow! The month has both crept along and flown by. We have been very busy with band fundraising efforts as well as spending time with Stephen before taking him back to Morris for his second semester of school.
January has been cold until today. We had a high of 29 predicted and hit 38 (the first time above freezing since Nov. 14). We haven't had much snow this month, just dustings and an inch or two once or twice.
Rachel has finished her piece for speech season and is working on memorizing it. Next Saturday will be a local practice meet as the team has grown exponentially in size this year and most of the kids have never competed.
Rachel and I found fabric and yarn in Bemidji on our way to Morris to make her next costume for Convergence. I am designing the dress and jacket so am being stretched creatively in the coming months. I am planning on making a mock out of a sheet and have started on the knit jacket (a shrug with long sleeves).
Rachel is working on music for her movie and completed a small project for a class project. She has another idea for a short movie to potentially enter in a regional film festival.
And Jeff just keeps plugging along. He is doing a lot of writing and recording in the studio and is beginning prepartions for a live show at the end of April/early May. He is posting new podcasts every other week and is seeing an increase in those numbers.
I hope this finds everyone looking for warmer weather and staying healthy this winter. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
