So I started a little website when Molly was born and kept it for a little less than 2 years. The site closed down, we got busy, yada yada yada, and I never got one back up an running. With everything that has happened this past year and realizing how important it is to keep in touch with family and friends, I have decided to start one back up! I don't know how many people with follow it, read it, or comment, but this is our way of making sure we are documenting the fun and the not so fun things in our life and sharing them with loved ones.
2010 was quite the year for us....I am definitely ready for the year to be over. I know you are probably thinking...it's 2011 Nicky, 2010 is over. And that may be true, but since Keith and I are both teachers, our "year" doesn't follow the calendar year, it follows the school year (those of you who are teachers can relate). Our year starts in September and ends in June. And come June I will be celebrating that we survived. In October I suffered a stroke and it took up until March 10th for me to get the "all clear" from my doctor and neurologist that I no longer had to be on any blood thinners, surgery was NOT going to happen, and that I no longer had any life restrictions (other than skiing). It was a long 5 months, but we made it, we're here, healthy and most importantly happy!
So this blog is the start of our "new" life and our new motto: here, healthy, and happy! We hope you enjoy keeping up with our little life, it may be boring at times, crazy at times, but it is our life and we wouldn't change it for the world.
Your family in Costa Rica is pleased to be able to see what's going on with you all in Minnesota. Thank goodness everybody's healthy and happy. You're in our prayers.

Can there be a better family motto than “here, healthy and happy”? So glad to hear it! May “2011” be good to you.
