Tomorrow marks 1 YEAR since we started this blog – Happy 1-year to us!

i’m celebrating tonight cos i won’t get to blog tomorrow – we are off for our 1st snow day of the season. There has been snow on top of our little mountain for most of the week now – so we think it’s safe to go & enjoy the snow now. Besides, i think my darling hubby would not be able to wait any longer – hehhehe 😉

As part of my celebrations, i would like to share a wonderful blog which i stumbled upon a few weeks ago & have been faithfully following since. It’s called Stay-at-Home Motherdom. i have been most encouraged by what this lovely mom has shared – she has shared herself to the world of blogging & has encouraged many, including myself. So check it out.

Well, have to go pick hubby up from train station soon.  He comes home tonight & tomorrow we hit the slopes!

It’s 2007 – Happy Happy & Fruitful & Joyous & Fulfilling New Year to everyone!!
i was intending on writing a long reflective email about the new year, expectations, hopes etc… but now i’m not in the mood – in part cos my back hurts – my backaches are back (i had them from Uni days) – haven’t had them this bad since before Tobias was born. In part cos my hubby has left to sleep the night at the Basel Train Station so he can catch the really early 7am flight to Hamburg for work tomorrow – sigh! i worry if he’ll be safe & if he can get a good night’s rest – i pray so.
So that’s it for now – maybe i’ll write that reflective stuff over the next couple of days.

So 2006 has come to an end & 2007 is starting – Hey!! where did the year get to??!!
Well, it flew by – so what are some of the milestones of 2006 for the Yoongz?
Hmmm… well, we started this Blog that’s one. Tobias turned 2. We have stayed in Switzerland for more than 9months at a stretch (previous years, since we had Tobias, we have gone back almost every 6mths). Tobias started daycare. Oh the 1st snow-free Dec since we’ve been here – well, there is snow high up in the mountains but not lots & it has not snowed yet where we live – which is most most unusual. So i have no snowy picture to say Happy New Year with – this is the best i can do for snowy picture for now – taken 13th Dec 2006, snowfall was barely 1mm.

In April of this year, i asked the question “Where did Spring go?”.
Now my question is “Where did Winter-Snow go?”
So 2006 has been the year from strange weather!
Now to say, Farewell 2006, Hello 2007!!!
