So I have not been blogging lately because a lot has happened around here lately. From the kids activities to my silent retreat, to a death in the family. So here I am trying to get back in the swing of things.
We have Barney back in our house for a while since the Auntie that he went to live with, lost her husband last week. So again we are trying to potty train the 2 puppies in the winter months, hmmm, it has been interesting to say the least. They seem to be getting it, most of the time. Now if we can get them to bark when they want to go out we will be doing great. I have considered tying a bell to the door and training them to ring the bell but I am afraid we may not always hear them, hmmm what should we do? Well I think we will continue to do what we are doing and see what happens.
So now about the silent retreat at the Kings House in Buffalo, MN ahhhh what an amazing weekend! It was so nice to go again this year. This year I was able to talk my mom into going. Wow is it hard to keep her quiet, haha. Let's just say we spent a lot of time in the coffee room where wewere are able to talk anytime we wanted to. I truely enjoyed the weekend. I will always remember the time I was able to spend with mom. She is the neatest person. It was fun just being at the retreat house where we didn't have to cook or do anything, we enjoyed the speakers and well talking. Oh and don't forget the wonderful food mmm good. I did come away from the retreat with a lot of insight. I look forward to the next time I can make a retreat. My mom would like to try one in the summer time because it would be nice to go outside, sounds good to me!
