The girls did Noodles and nails to celebrate Lydia's 9th birthday.

House Progress

Fireplace is done, bamboo flooring is done and they're siding this week.

Charlie is most excited about these drawers on the island for all his stuff.



Glow Run

The kids got pledges and ran laps to earn money for a school fundraiser.  Fun day!

Cross Country Skiing

We spent a perfect winter day on the Quarry Hill trails.  The kids did really well for their first time!

Once Charlie got past falling, yelling and throwing his poles he was all about it.  Claire was asking when we could go back on the way home.







Dissecting an owl pellet that we impulsively bought at Quarry Hill.  Someone was pretty excited about seeing what was inside...

School Stuff

Claire was learning about polar animals.   She got to see what it feels like to have skin vs. blubber in cold water and compared her height to an emperor penguin and a polar bear.


A teacher sent me this gem!  Charlie has been really excited to be a big buddy to a kindergartener.  So far he's played games and read to him.  So cute!

Polar Plunge 2020

A group of Bamber Valley totally tubular teachers raised money for the Special Olympics and took the plunge on Saturday.  The water was a cool 33.8 degrees but the sun was shining and it wasn't too bad!

Parents vs. Kids

The ice wasn't in great shape since it was 45 degrees but the kids and parents had fun playing a little boot hockey and going out to Buffalo Wild Wings before the Superbowl.

Check out the goalie!
