2026 has begun! Karen, Josh and Irina have been taking a pottery class. The first Friday was a bring a friend class so Sarah, Jason and I went. Sarah and Irina did hand pottery and Josh showed Jason and I how to throw a pot. I actually made one, but it wasn't great. It was fun to do!

| I haven't done this since I was a kid and went with Dad to his summer school class. We would get to try while he taught. In those days it was not an electric wheel--all run by foot. |

The second full week of January was kind of stressful. Jacob had finals in his Math 1050 class and 2 days of finals in his CTEC Cybersecurity class. Here he is studying with Jaxon for his math final.
The second to last day of the semester he came home between classes because the paper practice tests for math were also assignments. So he had to find them to turn them in. He did pretty well overall.
He has been dying to get a ski pass. We didn't get one earlier because in previous seasons when he and Jason had a pass, he didn't always want to go, but Jacob bought a snowboard and likes snowboarding. He purchased a twilight pass that gets him skiing at 2 p.m. and has some friends who like to do it so hopefully he'll have fun.
