art and Adlai

 I was inspired by Mount Shark and painted.
Kaya and Adlai had Trickster come to their school for a week. I volunteered and watched how the actors used the kid's creativity to create short skits. It was a full production with lighting and sound and impressive props and performers.
Adlai's lego cake took a very long time to decorate because I couldn't find enough small pieces to make the letters.


 His party was a scavenger hunt around the neighbourhood.

 And a soccer game in the corridor.

It's scary to watch home improvements but Patrick did a great job dismantling the stub wall.

Ski day

 There was enough snow for a snowman.
 The kids had crazy hair day at school. Kaya had a minnie mouse bow and Adlai let us spike his hair.

 The views on the way to Mount Shark.


 Patrick took the kids downhill skiing while Bryan and I went cross-country skiing.

Animals we love

The cross country ski season has been fairly non-existent with the very low snowfall and warm weather but we managed to get out for a family ski.
 We took care of Feliz.
 The kids built a magnatile maze for the guinea girls.


Kaya and I had gone riding in the fall on Jill and PJ, another mother and daughter team.
