We made some changes in several school subjects which I will tell about in a later post. Most changes have been in the area of everyday life and dance.
As most people we struggle to keep to a budget, especially with the rising cost of everything. I began this year using a free program for budgeting call Mvelopes. It is really easy to use and I even have an app on my phone to track spending. However, tracking is the only thing we have to do to trim the budget. I have been experimenting with making more food items from scratch and I have to say it has worked wonderfully.
I received a new Ninja Cooking Systems for a holiday present and I have been putting it to use regularly. Between the Ninja and my bread maker I have been able to make decently healthy and cheap meals for my always hungry family.
I hope to share more of my cooking from scratch adventure in the months to come.
In other news, my sweet Poogie had an exciting January. She was put on pre-pointe at our dance studio. It was so much fun and exciting. It just reminds me of how fast she is growing up.
T also has news in dance. He auditioned for and received an invitation to go to the Kansas City Ballet Summer Intensive. We initially just let him audition for the experience but low and behold he got in. His dance ability has improved so much since moving here I am amazed. This experience will only help him improve to become quite the dancer. I am so proud of him.
More to come.
