Friends, Fun and Fashion?

We anticipated a quiet, low key weekend. It was what we had planned after last weekend.
Plans change ... and change IS good!

After a morning of shopping, followed by skating, we headed to the movies with some of our friends.
We used up all of our coupons, but thanks to Nicole, we scored some more!
We followed up the movie (and popcorn and Kindersurprizes) with pizza (and ice cream!).
Cadence also met a new little friend ... too bad mommy is 'allergic'!

The kids entertained themselves for quite some time and then Emma entertained us with her fashion show:



Thanks so much J family!!!!

Blades of Glory!

The skates had been sitting in a box in the back of the truck for well over a month. Someone decided it was time to at least bring them in the house!


Someone also decided she needed to practise walking around in them.

Her mother realized that little someone was onto something ....

The very next day, someone went to the ice rink ... for the first time!
Someone proved to be a natural ....

Well done Cadence!
Your drive and positive attitude are to be commended!

We Interupt This Blog ...

for a special 'report'!


Cadence received a glowing report a couple of weeks ago. She is doing well in most areas of her kindergarten program so far and exceptionally well in a couple of others ...
We are SO proud!!!!!!!

Cadence 'reports' that she 'can paint'.

Her teacher reports that she "is a bright, enthusiastic learner. She is sensitive, caring and kind. She is polite, well mannered, friendly and reliable." Is anything else more important than that??????

Well done Cadence ... well done!!!!!

Lovin' the Long Weekends!

We had a GREAT Family Day weekend up north!
We enjoyed dinners out (and in!), games (including adult porketta bingo!), the great outdoors, sleepovers and just hanging with friends!
There were a lot of smiles and laughter ....





Many thanks to ALL of our hosts ... especially the fabulous Di!!!!
Looking forward to having y'all here soon!

Techno Fun

We've been having fun exploring a few apps. This one had us giggling.

Not sure who was having more fun ...

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

The roses were red,

The cash was blue,

We had a happy Valentine's Day,

How about you????

Getting Ready for V Day ...

For some reason, I don't quite understand, our school had pink and red day in honour of Valentine's Day, on Friday.
Valentine's Day is on Monday ... a school day ... ?????????
Regardless, we were prepared!

And in keeping with the whole idea of preparation, my little cupid was hard at work sorting her goodie bags ...

Another post likely coming tomorrow ... Valentine's Day!
